A lone gunman has killed and injured a number of people in central Virginia, police in the US state say.
They say more than 100 police officers have surrounded the suspect in a wooded area just outside of Appomattox.
The violence began shortly after noon on Tuesday local time when an injured man was found on a rural stretch of road, the Associated Press reports.
A police helicopter that responded to the incident was fired on and forced to land with a ruptured fuel tank.
The officers were not injured.
