A federal judge on Monday blocked immigration agents from conducting enforcement operations in houses of worship for Quakers and a handful of other religious groups. U.S. District Judge Theodore Chang found that the Trump administration policy could violate their religious freedom, and should be blocked while a lawsuit challenging it plays out. The preliminary injunction from the Maryland-based judge only applies to the plaintiffs, which also include a Georgia-based network of Baptist churches and a Sikh temple in California. They sued after the Trump administration threw out Department of Homeland Security policies limiting where migrant arrests could happen.

Shots were fired during an incident at a Lancaster County college campus on Sunday.

Violence against healthcare workers is on the rise as seen by an attack at a Pennsylvania hospital. A gunman took hostages before exchanges of gunfire that killed a police officer and wounded five other people at a York County, Pennsylvania, intensive care unit on Saturday. The shooting killed the man, identified as 49-year-old Diogenes Archangel-Ortiz. His motives remain unclear but he had been in contact with the hospital about a medical issue involving someone else. Security consultant Dick Sem says hospital shooters tend not to kill at random but often are angry about something that has happened and target specific victims.
