ATLANTA - A judge, a court reporter and two sheriff's deputies were shot on Friday at a courthouse in downtown Atlanta, officials said.

Atlanta police would not confirm the identities or condition of those shot at the Fulton County courthouse. CNN reported that Fulton County Superior Court Judge Rowland Barnes was one of those shot and had been killed.

Authorities were searching for the suspect, whom they identified as Brian Nichols. Nichols, who is accused of rape, assault and other felonies, escaped the court by carjacking at least one vehicle.

The shooting occurred around 9 a.m. inside the courthouse and may have continued outside the building, according to police. The wounded were taken to a local hospital.

The shooting occurred less than two weeks after the husband and mother of a federal judge in Chicago were shot to death.
