A new soldier helping to attract others to the military was shot and killed outside an Army recruiting office Monday and a second soldier was wounded. Police arrested a suspect a short time later.

The soldiers were outside the office when they were shot. They were taken to a hospital, where one died.

Police found an assault rifle in the vehicle.
