A gunman has massacred five people including a police officer after going on a rampage in North Carolina and has now been taken into custody, it is confirmed.
Raleigh Police were called to reports of a shooting in the Heddingham area of the city where a teenager is believed to have been firing indiscriminately with a long gun on Thursday evening.
It is believed the shooter then barricaded himself into a "barn" in east Raleigh and more than a dozen police vehicles were seen parked by a wooded area.
