A Puerto Rico policeman fatally shot two high-ranking officers and a policewoman on Monday following an argument at work that temporarily shut down the station in the U.S. territory’s second-largest city, authorities said. The suspect was immediately placed under arrest.

The suspect, Guarionex Candelario, held a female lieutenant, a male commander and a policewoman hostage in an office before he killed them, police spokeswoman Mayra Ayala told The Associated Press.

She said authorities were about to start negotiations with the 50-year-old suspect when the victims were killed. She said police did not yet have information on a motive. – READ MORE
