       An off-duty police officer who was getting a haircut Saturday soon shot and killed a suspect believed to have been behind a weekend shooting spree in Baltimore that left two people dead.

       Police arriving at the barbershop "learned that an armed gunman walked into the business and shot and killed" a male barber before an off-duty police officer who was in the business at the time "shot the suspect, killing him," according to a statement posted on social media by the Baltimore Police Department.
