Westminster Police Investigate Fatal Shooting

On March 16, 2012 at approximately 11:45 a.m. police officers and emergency medical personnel responded to a residence in the 400 block of South Hills Court in Westminster for the report of a shooting.

Upon arrival they found a male on the first floor of the home suffering from a single gunshot wound. The victim was alert and conscious at the time. He was transported by EMS staff to the University Of Maryland Shock Trauma Center where he died during surgery.

The victim has been identified as Vygants Tomas Campe (46 years of age) of Hanover, MD.

Investigators have determined that the victim was visiting with the owner of the residence at the time of the shooting.

Preliminary investigation indicates that the home owner was handling a pistol on the second floor of the home when it discharged. It appears that the projectile passed through the floor and struck the victim who was lying on the couch in the living room.

No charges have been placed at this time and the investigation is ongoing. Investigators are conferring with representatives of the Carroll County State’s Attorney’s Office.
