At least one person was killed and multiple others injured Friday by a gunman inside New York City's Bronx Lebanon Hospital, the AP reports. The shooter, a doctor who used to work at the hospital, also apparently killed himself. A law enforcement official anonymously named Dr. Henry Bello as the suspect; it's not clear when he left the hospital. The AP says six others were injured while CNN puts the number at five, three of them with serious injuries. Per CNN, the victim who was killed is a woman. The New York Times says three of the people shot are doctors. (More shooting stories.)
