Shooting suspect barricaded exit at Maryland newspaper and had purchased shotgun legally

The man charged with five counts of first-degree murder in connection with the mass shooting at the Capital Gazette in Annapolis had barricaded an exit at the newspaper and did not put up a fight as police closed in. “He didn’t run away, he hid,” Anne Arundel County Police Chief Timothy Altomare said.

Jarrod Ramos, 38, allegedly used a legally purchased 12-gauge, pump-action shotgun during the massacre. “The fellow was there to kill as many people as he could kill,” Altomare said.
