Newsroom shooting suspect previously sued paper for defamation

Police take measures after multiple people have been fatally shot and wounded when a gunman opened fire at the Capital Gazette newsroom in Annapolis, Maryland.

Law enforcement officials survey the scene after a gunman fired through a glass door at the Capital Gazette newspaper and sprayed the newsroom with gunfire, killing at least five people and injuring several others, in Annapolis, Maryland.

Suspect in newsroom shooting damaged fingertips to hide his ID

Authorities have identified the gunman behind Thursday’s deadly shooting at the Capital Gazette in Annapolis — which they described as a “targeted attack” on the newspaper.

Local law enforcement officials told CNBC that Jarrod Ramos, 38, was the person who walked into the Gazette newsroom and opened fire, killing five and injuring several others.

Anne Arundel County police officials said at a press conference Thursday night that he “had some sort of vendetta” against the local paper — and was making threats “indicating violence” on social media, though it’s unclear why.

Officials told NBC News that Ramos once filed a defamation suit against the Gazette in 2012 for a column it published in 2011 about a guilty plea he entered in a criminal harassment case. The claim was dismissed, however, on account of Ramos not having any evidence.

“A lawyer would almost certainly have told him not to proceed with this case,” the court wrote in the opinion, according to the Gazette.

“It reveals a fundamental failure to understand what defamation law is and, more particularly, what defamation law is not.”

Acting Anne Arundel County Police Chief William Krampf told reporters that Ramos was “prepared” and on a mission “to cause harm” Thursday. He allegedly deployed smoke grenades upon his arrival at the Gazette and appeared to be targeting editors, according to reporters inside, who spoke to CNN.

Authorities described Ramos as a resident of Maryland, but offered no other details.

“We have no information on motive,” said Anne Arundel County police spokesman Lt. Ryan Frashure. “We’re still doing interviews.”
