DAUPHIN COUNTY, Pa.– A suspect is in custody after a Lower Swatara Township Police Officer was injured in a shooting.
According to emergency dispatch, several officers responded to a trailer park on Bentley Lane in Lower Swatara Township for a reported shooting.
Lower Swatara Township Police Chief Jeff Vargo said that Park was holding a female victim against her will, and when police entered the trailer, Park opened fire on the officers.
Police were able to retreat with the victim from the residence, while Park barricaded himself inside.
