Shooting at U.S. Sikh temple: 7 dead, including suspected gunman, as usual no word on the 'identity or religion' of the shooter.(Fox).Police say at least seven people, including a gunman, were killed in a shooting at a Sikh temple near Milwaukee Sunday. Police were called to respond to the shooting at the Sikh Temple of Wisconsin in the suburb of Oak Creek on Sunday morning, when witnesses said several dozen people were gathering for a service. Sunny Singh, 21, of Milwaukee, said a friend pulled into the temple's parking lot, heard shots and saw two people fall down. The friend then saw the shooter reload his weapons and head to the temple's entrance, Singh said. Greenfield Police Chief Bradley Wentlandt said four people were found dead inside the temple, while three, including the suspected shooter, were found dead outside. Tactical units went through the temple, and authorities do not believe a second shooter was involved, Wentlandt said. Wentlandt said the shooting suspect opened fire on an 20-year veteran officer, who then "put down" that man. Wentlandt said the officer was shot multiple times and he is being treated in surgery, but his condition is not known. The officer is expected to recover, Wentlandt said. He described the scene as chaotic and fluid and urged the media not to broadcast photos or video showing tactical units, which could put officers in danger. Police responded to the shooting with a dozen ambulances. "Our hearts go out to the victims and their families, as we all struggle to comprehend the evil that begets this terrible violence," Milwaukee Gov. Scott Walker said in a statement. "At the same time, we are filled with gratitude for our first responders, who show bravery and selflessness as they put aside their own safety to protect our neighbors and friends." Three other shooting victims, all men, were taken to Froederdt Hospital in Milwaukee, the main trauma center for the area, spokeswoman Carolyn Bellin said. One was in the operating room, another in a surgical intensive care unit and the third was being evaluated in the emergency room, she said. According to the Journal Sentinel, there could be as many as 30 victims; among those shot was the president of the temple.One of the temple's committee members, Ven Boba Ri, told the Journal Sentinel that the shooting was very sad, and he has been fielding calls all morning from around the world, including India. "Sikhism is such a peaceful religion. We have suffered for generations, in India and even here."Read the full story here.Live updates here.
