  • At least five people were killed and several others were "gravely injured" in a mass shooting at the offices of a local newspapers in Annaapolis, Maryland, on Thursday.
  • Police have a suspect in custody, identified as a man in his late 30s.

At least five people were killed and several others were "gravely injured" after a shooting at the Capital Gazette newsroom in Annapolis, Maryland, on Thursday afternoon.

The suspected gunman, a white male male believed to be in his late 30s, was taken into custody. Police have yet to determine a motive and the suspect has reportedly been uncooperative.

Here's how the incident unfolded, based on what we know so far:

Phil Davis, a reporter with the Capital Gazette, tweeted that a gunman "shot through the glass door to the office and opened fire on multiple employees."

"Can't say much more and don't want to declare anyone dead, but it's bad," Davis added.

In addition to Davis, a summer intern for the newspaper also called for help on Twitter: "Active shooter 888 Bestgate please help us," intern Anthony Messenger wrote.
