Multiple killed in New Jersey shooting, including an officer

<p>ELKLAND &#8212; A Pennsylvania state trooper was shot and wounded Tuesday afternoon at a home in a rural area near the border with New York state, prompting a standoff with the barricaded gunman that lasted into the evening, authorities said.</p><p>Troopers were conducting a welfare check at the home in Nelson Township, in Tioga County, when they were met with gunfire, officials said.</p><p>One trooper was shot and was airlifted out. The trooper was conscious and alert before going into surgery, state police said. He was listed in stable condition.</p><p>A second trooper suffered a leg injury. He was treated and released, authorities said.</p><p>State police swarmed the scene as the gunman barricaded himself inside for several hours after the shooting.</p><p>Three troopers had gone to the home after a person who has regular contact with the resident called to say the resident had been out of touch for several weeks, authorities said.</p><p>Troopers said they announced themselves, failed to get a response and then entered through an unlocked door. They called out again, they said, and that&#8217;s when a single shot was fired. The troopers retreated and requested backup, police said.</p><p>The shooting took place on a sparsely populated road just over the New York state line.</p><p>A nearby elementary school said it was in lockdown as a result of the shooting, and asked people to stay away unless it was an emergency. A high school more than 10 miles away also placed itself on lockdown but didn&#8217;t explain why, given the distance. Both schools said they would dismiss students as usual.</p><p>Pennsylvania Gov. Tom Wolf and Attorney General Josh Shapiro tweeted they are praying for the injured trooper.</p><style>
