A Lake Ariel man has been arrested in connection with a Sunday afternoon shooting that left one person dead and two injured in Wayne County, state police said.
Lucas Aron Gartrell, 26, was taken into custody without incident, Trooper Robert Urban said in a statement released Monday morning.
Troopers responded to a report of an active shooter at The Hideout, a private residential community, around 3 p.m., Urban said.
Gartrell was located nearby.
A Hideout security officer was pronounced dead at the scene. Two other shooting victims were transported to Geisinger Community Medical Center in Scranton where they were listed in stable condition, Urban said.
Online court documents show that Gartrell is facing multiple felony charges: criminal homicide, two counts of attempted criminal homicide, five counts of aggravated assault and a single count of first-degree murder of a law enforcement officer.
Gartrell was arraigned before District Judge Jonathan Dunsinger. He is being held at the Wayne County Correctional Facility without bail.
A preliminary hearing is scheduled for Wednesday at 9 a.m.
Pennsylvania State Police are still investigating the shootings and further details will be released as they become available, Urban said.
