Police are searching for clues and evidence after a “targeted attack” left five people dead and turned journalists in an Anapolis, Maryland newsroom into the latest victims of a mass shooting in America. The scene outside of the newspapers The Capital and Maryland Gazette continued to be swarmed by investigators overnight as they tried to determine why a man they said was wielding a shotgun would pack smoke bombs to confuse the scene in the building’s lobby before breaking windows and taking lives with gunfire as he walked between desks in the office. “This was a targeted attack on the Capital Gazette,” William Krampf, the Anne Arundel County acting police chief, said Thursday evening during a press conference, referring ot the joint name that appears at the office to describe the two papers that work inside.
