Three Marshals Killed; Five Officers Hurt Serving Warrant; Shooter Dead

Three U.S. Marshals were killed, and five officers were wounded after a suspect opened fire on them during a U.S. Marshals Task Force investigation in Charlotte, NC.

"At least one shooting suspect was located deceased at the residence after clearing the scene," police wrote on X. "CMPD is questioning two other occupants of the home."

The shooting began when the U.S. Marshals Task Force attempted to serve a warrant for firearm possession by a convicted felon, police said. The U.S. Marshals Task Force was then "engaged by active gunfire from a subject.”
