Police said the suspect, Jarrod W. Ramos, 38, used a shotgun in the afternoon attack and is in custody. “This was a targeted at- tack on the Capital Gazette,” said Anne Arun- del County Deputy police Chief William Krampf. “This person was prepared today to come in. He was prepared to shoot people.” Ramos had a long-stand- ing dispute with the news- paper, according to law enforcement sources famil- iar with the investigation. His dispute with the news- paper began in July 2011, when a columnist covered a criminal harassment case against him. In 2012, Ramos brought a defamation lawsuit against the columnist and the pa- per’s former editor and publisher. In 2015, Mary- land’s second-highest court upheld a ruling in favor of the Capital Gazette and a former reporter who were accused by Ramos of defa- mation. Krampf said the shooter used canisters of smoke grenades when he entered the newspaper. The gunman also muti- lated his fingers in a pos- sible effort to thwart identi- fication, according to an official who was briefed on the investigation and spoke on condition of anonymity.
