QUANTICO, Va. (AP) Authorities at Quantico Marine base in Virginia say a Marine suspected of shooting to death a male and female colleague before killing himself was believed to have been a staff member at the officer candidate school.

A base spokesman says after one victim was killed late last night, the gunman barricaded himself in the barracks.

Authorities entered the barracks early this morning and found the suspect and a third Marine dead.
