www.cnn.com/2005/US/03/12/wisconsin.shootings/index.html (CNN) -- A gunman shot and killed four people at a church meeting in a hotel near Milwaukee, Wisconsin, on Saturday afternoon before shooting himself, Brookfield police Chief Daniel Tushaus said.
Seven or eight people were injured and taken to hospitals in serious condition. Information on their injuries was not immediately available. They ranged in age from their teens to their 60s, Tushaus told reporters.
He said he couldn't yet name the church.
Tushaus said police responded to a call from the Sheraton Hotel at 12:51 p.m. (1:51 p.m. ET).
"We quickly determined that a multiple shooting had occurred, and the suspect involved apparently died from a self-inflicted gunshot wound," the chief said. "There are no other suspects being sought at this time.
"The suspect is the person we believe is responsible for the shooting incident."
He said the meeting appeared to be a regularly scheduled church function at the hotel.
Brookfield is a community of 6,420 people about 15 miles west of Milwaukee.
