Michigan synagogue attacker reportedly killed
Luke Tress is The Times of Israel's New York correspondent.
The suspect who attacked a Michigan synagogue has been killed, multiple US reports say.
Law enforcement sources tell the Associated Press and CNN that the shooter has been killed.
There is no additional information.
The sheriff of Oakland County police, Michael Bouchard, has declined to confirm whether the attacker was killed at a news conference.
“We don’t have that person in custody. It’s a work in progress. That’s why we’re sheltering in place, to figure it out. It’s a big facility with a lot of land around it,” he says.
“We’re looking to see if there’s more than one person. We’re still trying to figure that out. We’re trying to get access to the video,” Bouchard says.
