Update: Suspect, Radee Prince now in custody according to ABC2 News Investigative Reporter Brian Kuebler.

The wanted suspect and his vehicle was found in the area of Wilmington, Delaware Wednesday evening.

Law enforcement in two states are reporting that six people were shot, three dead, after targeted shootings Wednesday morning. 

Deputies say Radee Labeeb Prince, 37, is the suspect in these shootings. 

Prince reportedly went into where he works, Advanced Granite Solutions in Edgewood, Maryland, and shot the five people with a handgun. There were 29 employees in the business at the time. 

Deputies say they responded at 8:58 a.m. after a reported shooting at Advanced Granite Solutions in the 2100 block of Emmorton Park Road. 

During a press conference, the Harford County Sheriff said that three people died at the scene and two were taken to the hospital in critical condition. 

One person needed to have surgery, and is still in critical condition, according to the Sheriff. 

All five people shot were employees at Advanced Granite Solutions. 

Prince worked at Advanced Granite Solutions for the last four months as a machine operator. He was scheduled to be at work on Wednesday.  

The Sheriff says he suspects Prince targeted the people he shot.

The Harford County Sheriff's Office has released the names of those killed in the shooting:  Bayarsaikhan Tudev, 53, with a last known address in VA; Jose Hidalgo Romero, 34, with a last known address of Aberdeen, MD; and Enis Mrvoljak, 48, with an address in Dundalk, MD. The two surviving victims are in critical condition at University of Maryland Shock Trauma.

Prince is also a suspect in a later shooting in Wilmington, Delaware, according to the Harford County Sheriff.

The Wilmington Chief said Prince drove to Delaware after shooting the five people in Maryland and sought out a specific man he has a history with. When he found the man at a car dealership, he shot him twice, once in the head. 

The victim told police that he knew who had shot him and gave the vehicle description, which matched Prince's information. 

During the conference, the chief said, "This is a dangerous individual. He shot six people in one day, three are dead. This a person with no conscious."

Earlier on Wednesday, Elkton Police blocked off the street of Prince's last known address. This is where they found a Dodge Charger that was initially a suspicious vehicle. 

Harford County Executive Barry Glassman issued the following statement on the shooting:

“Our sympathy and prayers are with the families of the lost and the injured employees in today’s horrible shooting.  Harford’s allied emergency services are assisting the Harford County Sheriff’s Office and the impacted families. In addition, my administration’s Department of Emergency Services is assisting our local, state and federal partners in apprehending the suspect.”
