LANGHORNE, Pa. (AP) -- A man taken to a suburban hospital for a sobriety test Thursday night grabbed a police officer's gun, opened fire and killed one officer, authorities said. Another officer and medical technician were wounded.
Robert A. Flor, 38, was captured in the St. Mary Medical Center garage an hour after the shooting, authorities said. He was hiding in the back seat of a car and police had to smash a window to capture him.
Flor, of Bedminster, faced a charge of murder and two counts of attempted murder.
The suspect fired five shots after grabbing the gun. Both the wounded officer, who was shot in the chest, and the hospital employee were expected to survive, authorities said.
The slain police officer was described as a 46-year-old man who had been with the Newton Borough department less than a year.
Langhorne is about 25 miles northeast of Philadelphia.
