now the baltimore sun is taking precautions in baltimore. they are now clearing their newsroom and making sure that -- maybe clearing is too strong but doing a sweep of the baltimore sun to make sure there's no connection with sister newspapers or ownership portions of this company. so in baltimore, they are now doing their own police procedure going through the baltimore sun to make sure that there is no threat there as well. we don't know the genesis of why they're doing this except for the fact that the baltimore sun owns the capital. we don't know if they're going through, if there was a threat. they're doing a sweep of the baltimore sun. we would anticipate other papers owned by the sun and in this group might also have police procedures going on today. it's very difficult to tell what kind of precipitated reasoning is for going to the baltimore sun, if there was a threat or precautionary. it's an interesting factoid that that is happening simultaneously while police are trying to figure out who the sussecond is in custody, who he is or

owned by "baltimore sun" media. circulation, somewhere around 30,274 daily, a little bit more on weekends. we're seeing a tweet from the maryland governor, larry hogan, saying absolutely devastated to learn of this tragedy in annapolis. i am in contact with county executive steve shuh and the maryland police on scene assisting the police, the local police. he says in his -- he says to please heed all warnings and stay away from the area. praying for those at the scene and for our community. juliet kaim is former homeland security joining us on the phone. again, still little known on how many people may be involved and who may have been the perpetrator here. what stands out to you? >> well, i will put good news on this that the perpetrator is captive. that's going to give a lot of information. the question now, i think the $64,000 question because it will have implications about whether this is local or a national story, who is the perpetrator, and what motivated him, it was personal, was a former employee, was he a

he just gave an interview to the baltimore sun. we told you the sun is the parent company of the capital newspaper. they own the baltimore sun. they were also swept out of security reasons because of this shooting. phil davis "it was like a war zone. a situation that would be hard to describe for a while. he says i'm a police reporter. i write about this stuff. not necessarily to this extend but shootings and death all the time. as much as i'm going to try to articulate how traumatizing it is to be hiding under your desk, you don't know until you're there and you feel helpless." davis said he and others were under their desk and said "i don't know why. i don't know why he stopped. police arrived and surrounded the shooter." david said "he declined to elaborate." stuffing stuff from the guy inside who was under his desk while his colleagues were getting shot around him. we don't talk about the number of fatalities until the police give you a number. we've heard there's several. we know there's people at hospitals right now and we kno

baltimore sun sent out additional police force.ance of caution. >> thank you, we'll bring in former nypd detective, pat brosnan to react, thank you, they don't have an i.d. on him. can you talk a little bit about that to why. >> well he'ing o wantings to sut his identity. to establish who he is, that first step to establish and identify motive, i understand he may have deliberately damaged tips of his finger tips. to minimize possibility of get a trip on him -- trip. liz: police recovered a suspected explosive device. in offices of the newspaper where shooting took place, can you talk to us about the suspected explosive device. now discovered in the offices of the newspaper. >> well, i gathered from presser, they thought an explosive device. they thought was seems to suggest they may have initially identified it. and investigation determined it was not just by the narrative format. i found to be interesting in the presser, that suspect was being interrogated, not just in custody, it established to me he was not wounded, we can debr

it is part of the "baltimore sun" group of newspapers. we do understand that there will be a police briefing just a few minutes from now. we do know that the number that the annapolis -- that the ann arundel county police were reporting the number of dead is not correct. they have walked back that number. we were ol' told it was five. we don't know whether it is fewer than or greater than five but it's not five. hans nichols arrived on the scene in annapolis. we are looking for that press conference in just a couple of minutes. before then, let's find out what hans has. >> we spoke to one witness that said she heard several loud blasts. i asked her could it come from the a shotgun. she didn't quite know but she said the sheriff and the police were there within two minutes and evacuated everyone and had two groups of 50 or 60 people that were inside that building. the witness we spoke to was just above the building. she described the office space where the newspaper is as holding 20, 25 people. that's the top end of how many people potenti

police also on the scene at the baltimore sun newsroom in baltimore. >> wow. >> again, it would appear to have been written by a reporter with the sun posting it on the gazette's news site. confirmation from gazette staff that multiple people have been shot and that this did occur at the capital gazette in an run del county. >> let me give you context. an run del county ems is reporting four fatalities. this was some time ago. we don't know what developed. four fatalities, two others with major trauma, still clearing the building. we have not had an update from anyone else. we know from the baltimore office of the atf that they have dispatched crews. they may be much closer than baltimore is to annapolis, but there are crews from the atf on their way. this is the capital gazette. the gazette is one of the country's oldest newspapers actually. it has been in that building at 888 best gate road since 2014. this is not downtown annapolis. it's not far from the annapolis mall. annapolis is the capital of maryland. hence the name of the newspaper, the capital gazette. jim cavanaugh is with

, they are reporting that on their website as is "the baltimore sun" and rerter phil davis who witnessed this has been tweeting out what it was like being under iss desk hearing colleagues being shot and hearing the gunman reload. that is alst a direc quote from his tweet. another titter saying it's that bad. >> he's able to confirm for us what the police are not willing to confirm. they have their own reasons for not doing so. we do know for sure there's confirmation of one person being taken off to baltimore shock tra trauma, but phil davis is reporting he saw multiple shot in that newsroom with the gunman firing through the glass or wall. >> from the hallway into the newsroom.u and also tracee wilkins, who is on the scene and of course tracee is our bureau cheer and prince george's county has a lot of sources. prince george's county is also on the scene helping out with resources with anne arundel county. urces urces, multiple s are telling her the shooter is in custody. anne arundel county will not confirm that, but she has multiple sources on the scene telling her the shooter is in

we're part of the baltimore sun media group that i know of. i'm not trying to attribute it to anyone, but simply a

and so that's the reason why police have been sent to the baltimore sun newsroom, as well. because just as a precaution. you don't know whether because somebody did this in an ap us someone else sitting at home watching this coverage might say, well, now's the time for me to do something similar somewhere else. sadly, we have seen incidents happen and this is the reaction of people out there. we don't know what the motivation of the individual was today and we know that this is a small newspaper. it appears well-known for its community service, providing coverage of high school football games. and so on. and so the idea that this would happen there i think everybody there is completely shocked and heart broken that it happened in this community. >> at least five dead in this shooting incident. several injured. some gravely injured and some of them taken to local hospitals and in baltimore johns hopkins university hospital, as well. josh campbell, i think this news conference is about to begin momentarily. looks like the authorities are walking over to the microphone. let's

the "capital gazette" owned by "the baltimore sun" newspaper and multiple wounded and fatalities. the shooter is alive according to what police seem to be suggesting. we have only heard of one individual taken to the hospital, though. >> that's right. we'll continue to wait for the details as far as what the casualties look like. there's a difference of casualties and fatalities. we have careful there determining the extent of what took place there. we'll get the details in short order. jake, you know, we have talked about this far too often as we sat together covering the incidents is that law enforcement officers now have two audiences, two constituencies if you will to get information to. the first is the public. this is in the public interest. but also, to the family members of those who worked in this facility, who were there on that day. we have talked about this before. i remember from incidents like orlando and san bernardino talking to family members of those impacted and this is that tough period of time where they do not know what's going on. was their loved one unfortu

it's owned by the baltimore sun. earlier the baltimore sun was also swept as a security precaution. there was no threat there. there is no reason to do that,, and others and media companies even in new york that are being guarded with extra security by the nypd to make sure that there are no further threats. right now, we are trying to get some word on who the shooter was and why he walked in to one of the oldest newspapers in the country, kimberly, and opened fire. >> kimberly: interesting details there, as the facts begin to emerge. like you said, trace, the official who came outside from a tactical standpoint, the area, perimeter is secure which means they don't believe there are any other accomplices or other shooters, active shooters in the area. so that's good. i guess the troubling aspect, there hasn't been any positive identification would probably explain why we have very little shooter information, just a white male in his 20s. they said it's active in terms of an investigative standpoint inside the building, still trying to recover ballistics and forensics to identify the

multiple people have been shot you can see the area on your screens right now according to the baltimore sun at least people have been killed police are responding to the incident and that's all we know at the moment but we will bring you any updates as soon as they come in. the streets of paris so once again packed with protesters denouncing french president emanuel micron's labor in tax reforms is part of a mass nation.
