A gunman ambushed a judge outside his Ohio courthouse, and the judge returned fire with a probation officer, killing the attacker.

The dead attacker was identified as Nathaniel Richmond, the father of a teenage boy found guilty in a high-profile 2013 rape case.

The judge, Joseph J. Bruzzese Jr., was taken into surgery and expected to survive the Monday shooting attack. The judge reportedlyhad nothing to do with the rape case, making the gunman’s motivation unclear to local officials.
