Man shoots workmates

-

A man with a lengthy criminal past who showed up for work at a countertop company yesterday and shot five of his co-workers has been arrested, authoritie­s said. Three of them were killed and two critically wounded. Less than two hours later, Radee Labeeb Prince drove to a used car lot about 90km away in Wilmington, Delaware, and opened fire on a man with whom he had ‘‘beefs’’ in the past, wounding him, police said. The shooting rampage set off a manhunt along the Interstate 95 Northeast corridor. The FBI assisted state and local authoritie­s in the manhunt. Prince was ‘‘apprehende­d a short time ago in Delaware by ATF and allied law enforcemen­t agencies,’’ the Harford County Sheriff’s Office in Maryland tweeted later. Authoritie­s said it wasn’t clear why Prince opened fire with a handgun on his colleagues.
