BEAR, Del. -- A married Maryland couple in their 80s were the victims in a shooting at a veterans cemetery in Delaware.

Delaware State Police on Friday night identified the victims as an 86-year-old man and 85-year-old woman from Elkton, Maryland.

The wife was pronounced dead at the scene. The husband was taken to the hospital and was in critical condition Friday night.

The two were at Delaware Veterans Memorial Cemetery in Bear on Friday morning when they were shot. Their names have not yet been released.

A suspect engaged in a shootout with police around noon Friday. He was found dead from a gunshot wound a few hours later in a wooded area where the shootout took place. The suspect was identified only as a 29-year-old man from Middletown, Delaware. It was not immediately clear whether the suspect shot himself or was hit by police in the earlier exchange of gunfire, police said.

No officers were injured in the shooting.

The state-owned cemetery is overseen by the Office of Veterans Services, a division of the Delaware Department of State.

An earlier version of this story incorrectly stated that the 86-year-old man had died. As of Friday night, he was in critical condition.
 
Talk about senseless and tons of unanswered questions. Unreal.
 
Tragic. Too many angry, stupid people.
 
Searched the WaPo, and for some reason could not find the story, though it happened in the paper's backyard. Instead, my inquiry - elderly couple killed by black man - yielded the following headlines from WaPo:

Huh … only stories I can find are white guy kills black guy, or some variation thereof. Oh, and does WaPo talk about the two white guys in the pickup? Lessee …

Wow, look at that - the FIRST two stories featured are that very incident. Almost as if Google and WaPo are engaged in information control, a.k.a. propaganda.

Shocking.

Guess why I posted it.
 
This story will be vanished soon. I’m sure their death is listed as COVID.
 
Dear DJFAN, i feel your pain. But the perp was killed by the police. If anytime in the future a black man kill someone white, and he is sent home and not even charged, i will march and protest with you.

You've missed my point entirely. My protest is not against one skin color or another, nor against guns, murder, death by cops, or suicide before arrest. My protest is against news media outlets representing bias and deception by not reporting somethings, while representing other things, even to the point of lies, exaggeration and deception.

I find the media to be slimy beyond description.

They've gotten so bad, especially under this President, that it's hard to watch.
 
And the insane thing is, they don't even consider him President. They, in their delusional minds, think that Hillary Clinton is the rightful President because she got more popular votes.

They're not right in the head, and it seems like there's quite a lot of them. It's ******* scary, but the one thing that makes me feel a little better is that none of these ******* carry guns.
