Скачать или смотреть Gunshots and fire at Pennsylvania home: 2 officers hurt, 6 people missing

(AP) At least six people were unaccounted for following a fire at a home in Pennsylvania that started after two police officers were called there and wounded by gunfire Wednesday, authorities said.

“Our fear is there may be multiple people inside that home who have died,” Delaware County District Attorney Jack Stollsteimer said. “We are hopeful that that is not true.”

Officers responded to the house in East Lansdowne around 3:45 p.m. after a 911 call reporting that an 11-year-old girl had been shot, Stollsteimer said.

They immediately came under fire. One officer was shot in the arm and the other in the leg, officials said. They were both described by Stollsteimer as male, veteran officers. One works for the East Lansdowne department, and the other for neighboring Lansdowne.

Officers from Upper Darby saved their lives by dragging them out of danger, he added, and “we expect them to be perfectly fine.”

Authorities believe the home was set on fire by someone inside. Intense flames were initially seen rising from the roof and top floor of the three-story home before spreading to the lower levels, largely gutting the structure.
