Two people shot dead in Idaho while responding to brush fire

Two people have been fatally shot in the western US state of Idaho while responding to a brush fire, say officials.

Kootenai County Sheriff’s Office Robert Norris said at least one active shooter was firing at law enforcement with high-powered rifles in the city of Coeur d’Alene.

“We don’t know if there’s one, two, three or four” shooters, said Sheriff Norris, adding that officers had reported bullets coming from various directions. Residents have been asked to avoid the scene.

FBI Deputy Director Dan Bongino said agents were responding to “provide tactical and operational support”. Governor Brad Little posted on X that “multiple heroic firefighters” were attacked.

“This is a heinous direct assault on our brave firefighters,” said the governor. “I ask all Idahoans to pray for them and their families as we wait to learn more.”

He added: “As this situation is still developing, please stay clear from the area to allow law enforcement and firefighters to do their jobs.”
