At least three people were killed and several others were wounded in a barrage of gunfire Monday, including two police officers, in a northwestern New Mexico community before law enforcement fatally shot the 18-year-old suspect, authorities said.

The shootings occurred around 11 a.m. in Farmington, a city of about 50,000 people near the Navajo Nation that is a supply line and bedroom community to the region's oil and natural gas industry.

"There are no other known threats at this time," police said, adding that city, San Juan County and State Police officers were involved. Investigators will now have to look at a crime scene that spans several blocks, according to Crum. Police are asking for anyone with information to come forward. "It's not like the roughest area in town, but it can be," he said. "We have great neighbors and rentals, people who come and go. We don't always know everyone."
