Gunman kills two firefighters on Xmas Eve morning

Two firefighters were killed in a "hail of bullets" on Christmas Eve morning when a gunman opened fire on teams reporting to a residential fire in the town of Webster, N.Y. Two other firefighters were wounded and are currently listed as being in "guarded" condition in a local hospital. An unidentified gunman is also dead, though it is unclear whether the shooter's death was self-inflicted. The blaze, which originated at one house, spread to at least two others before firefighter SWAT teams gave the all-clear to resume battling the fire when it was determined there was no longer an "active shooter." [Source]
