Three law enforcement officers were killed and two others were wounded in a shooting in Pennsylvania on Wednesday afternoon, and the suspect is also dead, the state police commissioner said.

Police were apparently serving a warrant in York County when they were fired upon, three sources familiar with the matter told NBC News.

The officers were in Codorus Township following up on a domestic investigation that began Tuesday, said the state police commissioner, Col. Christopher Paris.

“There are simply no words I can offer to assuage the grief that this community has experienced,” he said.

Wow. First off this is terrible

Their families are in my thoughts tonight, unironically.

Secondly, dude must've been packing significant firepower, given how hard the cops usually roll up to serve warrants these days (like they're about to enter a building in Fallujah circa 2003).

I kinda want to make some quip about good guys with guns, but I'll refrain.
