One police officer was killed and four others were wounded Thursday in a shootout that began as part of a drug investigation in Greenland, a coastal town. The state attorney general, Michael Delaney, said the gunman and a woman remained holed up around 10:30 p.m., about four hours after the initial confrontation. The names of the officers were not immediately released because their relatives had not all been notified, but Greenland has just seven police officers.
