Wisconsin experienced another mass shooting on Sunday, this time at the Brookfield Square Mall just outside Milwaukee. According to local TV stations, the assailant is still at large.
Early reports say four people have been brought to the hospital so far — none with life-threatening injuries — and three more victims are currently being transported. No fatalities have been reported so far.
The incident reportedly happened at the Azana Salon and Spa near the mall, and was suspected to be result of a domestic dispute between the assailant and a woman who was an employee at the salon.
Police say there will be a press conference forthcoming, but it's still unclear whether there is some sort of improvised explosive device involved, or if there is a hostage situation underway. A WTMJ reporter said that possibility — as well as fact that police are still looking for a suspect — might be the reason for the delay in the press conference.
Twitter user @kailybehrens is among the shoppers currently on lockdown in the mall, providing updates on what's been happening indoors.
According to WTMJ, the suspect is a 270-pound, 6'1″ bald African-American man with brown eyes, and he might be driving a black 2003 Mazda.
