ReportTwo police officers were shot and killed on Saturday in Mississippi and police are looking for a suspect, according to local media.
Forrest County Coroner Butch Benedict said both officers were shot on Saturday in Hattiesburg and taken to hospital where they were confirmed dead, according to The Clarion-Ledger newspaper.
At least one of the officers was alive when he entered the hospital, the newspaper reported.
Officials did not say what the motive was for the attack.
Hattiesburg Mayor Johnny DuPree urged residents to stay indoors while police searched for the shooter.
Police said they believed the suspect stole a police car after the shooting, which was later found abandoned.
The Clarion-Ledger said it was the first police killing in Hattiesburg in 30 years.
