The five victims were all employees of Molson Coors. The 51-year-old suspect died from a self-inflicted gunshot wound, Milwaukee Police Chief Alfonso Morales told reporters. "No other individuals were injured," Morales said. "It's a terrible day for Milwaukeeans." Gonna be a long, hot summer in Milwaukee... The chief said there is no additional threat at this time. More than 1,000 people were working on location at the time of the shooting, he said. Mayor Tom Barrett told reporters that there were "multiple fatalities" in a "horrific shooting." "It is a horrible, horrible day for the employees here," he said. "It is a very rough day for anyone who is close to this situation." Milwaukee police tweeted around 4 p.m. that it was investigating a "critical incident" and asked residents to stay clear of the area. The department later updated to say there was "no active threat" but "this scene is still active." Police also warned that "various sources" are "citing various numbers of casualties," saying "that information has not been confirmed." Posted by: Besoeker 2020-02-27 |
