A suspect and victim are both dead after a shooting at New Hampshire State Hospital in Concord Friday afternoon. Police say the situation is now "contained" and all patients at the hospital are safe. 

"Today an active shooter situation occurred at the New Hampshire State Hospital and was contained to the front lobby," New Hampshire State Police Col. Mark Hall said. "There is no active shooter threat to the public. The scene remains active, as one suspicious vehicle has been located."

The victim has been identified as 63-year-old Bradley Haas of Franklin, New Hampshire. 

He was a retired police chief, that was working as a security guard at the hospital according to N.H. Attorney General.

The AG also said that police examined the truck, and determined it was not a safety risk.
