WASHINGTON (Reuters) – An elderly gunman linked to an anti-Jewish website killed a security guard at the U.S. Holocaust Memorial Museum in Washington on Wednesday and was wounded when guards returned fire, officials said.

The guard, Stephen Tyrone Jones, died at a local hospital after being shot with a rifle, officials said. The museum said it would be closed on Thursday in his honor.

"There are no words to express our grief and shock over these events," the museum said in a statement.

The gunman was in critical condition after the incident, authorities said.

A federal law enforcement official said investigators had identified James W. von Brunn, 88, as the potential suspect and linked him to a website that expresses anti-government and anti-Jewish sentiments.
