Maryland Gov. Larry Hogan has ordered flags be flown at half-staff starting Thursday to honor two deputies shot and killed by a gunman.

One of the deputies was shot in the head in a crowded restaurant.

The second was mortally wounded during a shootout. The 67-year-old gunman, who had outstanding warrants in Maryland and Florida, was killed in an exchange of fire.

The shooting happened in Abingdon, about 20 miles northeast of Baltimore.
