A shooting inside Wilmington Hospital in Delaware left one person dead and another injured on Tuesday, prompting a major law enforcement response and an ongoing search for the suspect.

Authorities said the incident occurred within the hospital and appears to have involved employees of the facility.

Preliminary information indicates that a hospital worker allegedly shot two colleagues before fleeing the scene. One victim died from injuries sustained in the attack, while the second victim was transported for medical treatment.

Police have identified the suspect and launched an intensive manhunt involving multiple law enforcement agencies.

The investigation is being led by Wilmington Police, with assistance from New Castle County Police and the Delaware State Police. Officials have not yet released the suspect's name publicly as efforts to locate the individual continue.

In the aftermath of the shooting, hospital administrators placed the campus on lockdown and diverted emergency department patients to other facilities.

Authorities worked to secure the building, account for staff and patients, and ensure there was no continuing threat inside the medical center.

Investigators are now examining the circumstances that led to the shooting, including the relationship between the suspect and the victims.

Officials have urged anyone with information about the suspect's whereabouts to contact law enforcement immediately. Additional details are expected to be released as the investigation progresses.
