Police in action - Sakshi Post

Four persons including a police officer were killed in Wisconsin, US, after a domestic dispute escalated into shootings at three different locations and a dramatic standoff between police and the suspect.

The suspect is in police custody. The shootings took place at a bank, a law firm and an apartment complex. Around 12.30 pm on Wednesday, the police responded to a "domestic situation" at Marathon Savings Bank in Rothschild. When they arrived, police discovered two people were shot. The suspect was not there. Police then received a call about 10 minutes later from the law firm Tlusty, Kennedy and Dirks in nearby Schofield, where the suspect killed one person. Then at 1.30 pm, another person was killed at an apartment complex in Weston, where the suspect had barricaded himself in an apartment.

After a few hours of negotiations, there was an exchange of gunfire. The suspect was injured and transported to local hospital. Nearby schools and a hospital were on a lockdown following the shootings. The lockdowns were later lifted. At some point during the events, an officer with the Everest Metro Police Department was fatally shot.
