York, Pa. – A police officer fired a gun explosion that attacked an officer was beaten in response to a siege at a Pennsylvania hospital, a police officer also attacked an armed officer, a police officer revealed at a press conference Wednesday.

York County District Attorney Tim Barker announced the findings that the shotgun explosion also injured the second officer in the ICU.

Buck calls the officer heroes, who are in danger, ready to risk their lives and save the hostages. He said the attacker Diogenes Archangel-Ortiz “released the torrent of evil” and directly led to Duarte's death.

“I watched every video moment, and I saw in everyone's face the willingness to go in, and encountered shootings and potential death paths. They were willing to lay their own lives for everyone in that hospital,” Buck said, calling their actions “100% reasonable and legally appropriate.”

Barker told reporters that the attack at UPMC Memorial Hospital occurred after the gunman learned from a doctor that the woman he lived there died after he was treated there. He said the investigators seeking motivation were empty.

“There is no description that can convince anyone that the actors will commit this type of mass violence,” Buck said.

Chief Matthew Millsaps previously said at the official’s funeral that Duarte’s final scene was a threat toward the threat.

Archangel-Artagel-tiz, 49, purchased a zipper tie and a knife that morning and used a gun in a neighboring county during the attack, Buck said. He said the Angel-Otitz seemed to have become nauseous when the doctor told him that the woman was moved to the hospital morgue.

Moments later, he showed the gun and announced: “This is what we are going to talk about,” Buck said. Archangel – Ortiz shoots the doctor, grazing his arms, wearing a jacket. The doctor texted a colleague who warned the gunman and fled from the ICU.

With this comes a series of chaos, Archangel-Otis threatens hostages and patients and creates a hospital worker zipper tie. A hospital worker who was shot in his leg was able to escape and lock himself in the bathroom.

Buck said Archangel-Otitz also called his brother during the siege and told him to clean up his house and give up his jewelry. “That's how I'm going to go out,” Buck said.

Barker said police tried to negotiate and reduce the crisis as they also organized teams on the intensive care gate and developed a plan to get police officers to follow a person with a tactical shield into the department.

Duarte was hit in the shoulder and chest, he said.

Overall, four workers were injured – the doctor and worker shot, the third person with head trauma, and the fourth person was injured, Buck said. Two policemen were shot and one-third were injured by shrapnel, and Duarte was killed. He did not name the officer who fired the gun.

When the police took back the Archangel-Otis' 9mm pistol, it was not full.

Barker said they had no details about why Archangel-Otters did what he did, noting: “Sometimes there is no ‘why’.”

“The only thing we can say is that he himself decided to go to UPMC and was ready to go all out to take hostages and kill people,” Buck said.

Some nurses who survived the attack have shared their accounts on social media, revealing details about the harm and treatment and how the attack plagued survivors. The attack highlights the violence against health care workers in the United States and the challenges of protecting them.

Nurse Tosha Trostle said in a Facebook post that she was tied behind her by the gun as a shield and was tied behind her back when they walked past the door and encountered a response to police lawsuit. She said she begged the Archangel-Ortiz to let her go and then pushed the gun to her neck and spine. She heard the gunshots and fell to the floor beneath him, and was able to be safe.
