A police officer and a gunman were both killed at a Pennsylvania hospital in York County on Saturday morning, according to officials.

The incident took place at UPMC Memorial Hospital at around 10:45 a.m. 

Ted Czech, a public information officer at York County’s Office of Emergency Management, told Fox News Digital that his department responded to a 911 call about an “active threat” at the hospital. 

The gunman’s identity has not been released, but the officer who died – Andrew Duarte – was identified in a post by the West York Borough Facebook page.

“Our prayers and deepest condolences go out to West York Borough Police Officer, Andrew Duarte’s family and all of our brothers and sisters in the West York Borough Police Department that have lost a comrade and friend, and furthermore our fellow Borough agencies that have lost a colleague,” the post read. “Our community grieves the loss of a hero.”
