A funeral service will be held later this week for a Pennsylvania police officer shot and killed while responding to a hospital intensive care unit where authorities said a gunman had shot three hospital employees and taken staff members hostage last weekend.
Northern York County Regional Police Chief David Lash said Sunday that one of his officers who was wounded in the shooting had been released from hospital treatment and was expected to fully recover.
The other wounded officer, a member of the Springettsbury Township Police Department, has also been released from hospital care and is recovering at home, Chief Todd King said in a Facebook post on Monday.
The service will be limited to his family members and friends, sworn members of law enforcement, dignitaries and special guests, according to a news release issued by his family and the West York Borough Police Department.
York County District Attorney Tim Barker said Saturday that Archangel-Ortiz appeared to have had recent contact with the ICU “for a medical purpose involving another person.” Officials have not spoken publicly about that incident or disclosed his motive.
