Emergency room gunman fires many shots, only kills himself
CINCINNATI (AP) — A man who tried to storm into an Ohio hospital's psychiatric emergency room while carrying two handguns shot and wounded a security officer, fired at a police officer, missing him, and then killed himself with a self-inflicted gunshot, police said Thursday.
Cincinnati Police Chief Eliot Isaac identified the gunman in the Wednesday afternoon shooting as Isaiah Currie, 20, of Cincinnati.
Some of the drama that unfolded at the University of Cincinnati Medical Center complex was captured on surveillance video and 911 recordings.
"We have a shooter here. ... I'm hiding under a desk. Hurry!" a psychiatric services employee reported during a 911 call.
