Virginia shooter kills 8

A lone shooter killed eight people in Appomattox, Va., southwest of the state capital, Richmond, with seven bodies found at one home, police said Tuesday.

State police said officers had the suspect, Christopher Speight, 39, circled in the woods late Tuesday near the home and they believed he was still alive.

The eighth shooting victim was found on the side of the road and died on the way to the hospital, police said. All the victims were adults and both men and women were killed, state police Sgt. Thomas Molnar said.

Police could not say what prompted the burst of violence.

The drama paralyzed the rural area as police swarmed forests trying to flush out the suspect who, at one point in the manhunt, fired at a state police helicopter, forcing it to land with a ruptured fuel tank. No police were injured.

Canine units and a National Guard helicopter with thermal imaging equipment were being used to search the woods late Tuesday.

The violence began shortly after noon when an injured man was found on a rural stretch of road. A deputy who went to investigate fled after he heard gunshots, said police spokeswoman Corrine Geller.

Police were still trying to determine the suspect's relationship with the victims. Authorities told nearby residents to stay inside and a small Christian school was locked down until state police could escort about 60 children from the building.

Appomattox is best known as the place where Confederate Gen. Robert E. Lee surrendered to Union Gen. Ulysses S. Grant to end the Civil War.
