BELTSVILLE, Md. (AP) — A man fatally shot his estranged wife while she was waiting to pick up their children outside a suburban Washington high school Thursday afternoon and wounded a man who tried to intervene, police said.

Officers were still looking for Eulalio Tordil, 62, of Adelphi on Thursday night, Prince George's County Police said in a news release.

Police said an early investigation indicates Tordil followed 44-year-old Gladys Tordil into the parking lot of High Point High School in Beltsville and confronted her as she sat in her SUV waiting for her children.

Another man tried to intervene and was shot in the shoulder before the gunman shot Gladys Tordil several time as she sat in her vehicle, police said. The wounded bystander was expected to survive.
