Three people have been killed and two wounded in a shooting at a tavern in Wisconsin.
The shooting took place early on Sunday at Somers House Tavern in the village of Somers, Kenosha County Sergant David Wright said.
The suspected attacker is still on the run and Wright said the shooting appeared to be a “targeted and isolated incident”.
Officials were still working to determine the identities of the people who were killed.
The road leading up to the tavern was closed early Sunday while officials were investigating.
