Law enforcement officers on Sunday stormed a church where a shooter hid after wounding three in a courthouse ambush, finding the body of the likely gunman and another man, police said.The shooting began late Saturday and wounded two officers and a civilian, said David Duke, Moscow's assistant police chief. Duke said the attack was apparently an ambush, with the shooter firing into the Latah County Courthouse to lure people into the line of fire. A total of 75 shots were fired, he said.
Shortly after 6 a.m., three SWAT teams entered the First Presbyterian Church and found the two bodies on the main floor, Duke said. A semiautomatic rifle, ammunition and spent shells were found with one of the men, he said.
"We believe one of those is our shooter," Duke said. Authorities did not know the identities of either man.
