Teen shoots another, then himself inside the police dept.




In an apparent hate crime, a 16-year-old white teenager wielding a .22 caliber rifle chased a 16-year-old black teenager into the station Friday afternoon, shot him in the arm and then shot himself in the chin as he backed out into the street after being confronted by a police officer, according to police and witnesses

Quote from the article:
Booan said village officials will examine safety protocols at the village office, which is co-located with the police department.

“Our police officer (James Cox) conducted himself extremely well and professionally,” Booan said.

Booan said also thanked the responding officers from the sheriff’s department and state police, whom he said performed professionally.

“As a community we owe our thanks to the officers who were involved,” he said.

Police and village officials declined to identify the teens, but classmates at Cooperstown High School said the shooter was Anthony Pacherille and the alleged victim was Wesley Lippett.
