BOSTON -- One person is dead after a double shooting at an auto parts warehouse in Webster on Monday morning. The search for the alleged gunman led police to a wooded area in Berlin on Monday afternoon.
NewsCenter 5's Jack Harper reported that Massachusetts State Police surrounded a wooded section of Berlin near the Solomon Pond Mall late Monday afternoon, and the alleged gunman, William Goddard, 38, of Worcester, was arrested.
At least one shot was fired at a state police helicopter during the 90-minute standoff, Worcester District Attorney Joseph D. Early Jr. said.
Authorities said Goddard walked into the office of the Action Crash warehouse on Railroad Avenue in Webster on Monday morning with a gun. According to a company statement, the facility manager and a saleswoman were shot and taken to a local hospital. One of the shooting victims died, but officials would not offer any other details.
Goddard is the estranged boyfriend of the saleswoman, the company said.
Goddard's sport utility vehicle, a 1999 Ford Expedition, was found abandoned on Cherry Street in Spencer shortly after 10 a.m., officials said.
The Worcester County District Attorney, state police and the U.S. Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms and Explosives are involved in the investigation.
