NORTH CODORUS, Pa. (AP) — Three police officers were killed and two were injured in a shooting Wednesday in the southern part of Pennsylvania, state police said.

“We grieve for the loss of life of three precious souls who served this county, served this commonwealth, served this country,” Gov. Josh Shapiro said.

"This kind of violence is not OK, we need to do better as a society,” he continued.

The shooting erupted in the area of North Codorus Township, about 115 miles (185 km) west of Philadelphia, not far from the Maryland line, authorities said.

“The grief will be unbearable but we will bear it,” Pennsylvania State Police Commissioner Christopher Paris at a news conference. “We will not rest until we conduct a full fair and competent investigation into this matter.”
