A memorial is growing as a Pennsylvania community mourns the loss of a police officer on Saturday. The officer was killed in the line of duty when a gunman opened fire inside the UPMC York Memorial Hospital.

The man who authorities say entered a Pennsylvania hospital with zip ties and a pistol over the weekend had recent contact with the hospital's intensive care unit, where he took staff members hostage and was killed in a shootout that left a police officer dead and others injured.

A gunman, armed with a handgun and carrying zip ties, went inside UPMC's ICU, and took staffers hostage before he was ultimately killed by police in a shootout, the York County DA said.
