At least four people have been shot at a courthouse in St. Joseph, Michigan, including one police officer.
Local media suggests that three people may be dead at Berrien County Courthouse. Two of the deceased are court bailiffs, while the third is the shooter, according to an employee of the country persecutor's office, speaking to the Detroit Free Press.
These numbers have not been confirmed by state police.
Preliminary reports suggest that the suspect was on his way to jail when he grabbed a gun from a deputy and opened fire.
After being placed on lockdown, the courthouse has been secured by state police according to Michigan Governor Rick Snyder.
The incident follows a violent week in which a pair of police shootings led to mass protests against the killing of Alton Sterling and Philando Castile. During demonstrations in Dallas on Thursday, a shooter identified as Micah Xavier Johnson opened fire, killing five police officers.
