Suspect was found hiding under a desk in building, official says

Police found the suspect in today's shooting hiding under a desk in the building, said Steve Schuh, Anne Arundel county executive.

The suspect's weapon was on the ground, and "not in his immediate proximity," he said.

He told CNN’s Wolf Blitzer that authorities have a name on the gunman but are not able to confirm it.

Schuh said he doesn't know if the newspaper was the target of today's shooting.

When law enforcement officials entered the building, they found a package or carrying device, which contained a flammable liquid, on the ground, he said.

Schuh said the shooting doesn't appear to be well-planned.

"It looks like it was amateur hour. But even amateurs can cause a lot of damage in the absence of excellence response by law enforcement. We fortunately had that in this instance," he said.
