PERRYMAN, MD — After a worker gunned down three people and injured three others Thursday morning at the Rite Aid distribution center in Perryman, first responders said they were at the scene within five minutes.

Gunfire erupted around 9 a.m. as the shooter was reporting to the complex off Perryman Road where she was working as a temporary employee, according to Harford County Sheriff Jeffrey Gahler.
