Around 1:35 p.m. Thursday, shots were fired in the area of Temple Israel in West Bloomfield, a suburb northwest of Detroit, Oakland County Sheriff Michael Bouchard said.
Bouchard said a man drove through the doors of the building and down a hallway, and that security engaged the suspect with gunfire. Law enforcement sources told CBS News the suspect exited the vehicle with a rifle and was confronted and killed by synagogue security. Bouchard, however, said the suspect was found dead in the vehicle, and said he couldn't specify if he was killed by security.
"In situations like this, you never know, if somebody is trapped somewhere, sometimes they kill themselves," Bouchard said.
According to Secure Community Network, which provides security for Jewish institutions across the country, there were two suspects in the vehicle, although Bouchard said it appeared there was only one.
