BROCKPORT, MONROE COUNTY (AP) -- Police say an upstate New York man firing shots from his second-floor window injured a neighbor and a responding police officer before surrendering peacefully.

Monroe County Sheriff Patrick O'Flynn says the man began shooting randomly from the house early Friday afternoon, hours after a dispute with his partner.

A male deputy was hit in his lower right leg and a female across the street was hit in the shoulder. Both unidentified victims were hospitalized with injuries that aren't life-threatening.

Police say the woman the gunman lived with and their two children were not in the house during the roughly hour-long shooting.

A negotiator coaxed the man out of the house.

The shooting briefly caused a lockdown at the state university in Brockport.
