BEAVERCREEK (AP) — Walmart says it is working closely with investigators to try to determine why a shooter opened fire at one of its stores in western Ohio and wounded four people before killing himself.
The attack was reported at around 8:30 p.m. Monday at the Walmart in Beavercreek.
“The conditions of the victims right now is unknown” but all were taken to hospitals for treatment, police Capt. Scott Molnar said at a news conference.
Police also said the shooter died after apparently shooting himself. His name, a motive for the attack and other details weren’t immediately released.
Police earlier said on social media that the store had been cleared and secured and there wasn’t any “active threat.”
“We’re heartbroken by what’s happened at our Beavercreek, Ohio store. This remains a developing situation, and we’re working closely with investigators on the scene,” Walmart said in a statement.
