Two people lost their lives and a third was seriously injured on Saturday night after being shot at by a subject who was killed by the authorities in a casino located near the city of Green Bay, Wisconsin, reported this Sunday the Police.

“We have two victims who have died, a victim who is seriously injured, and then the shooter himself passed away, ”Lt. Kevin Pawlak of the Brown County Sheriff’s Office, where Green Bay is located, told reporters early Sunday morning.

The officer explained that apparently it was not a random shooting and that the attacker, who was not immediately identified, was targeting a person which he could not find, so he opened fire in a restaurant located in that complex.

“Apparently he decided to shoot some of the victim’s friends or co-workers,” he added.

Pawlak did not rule out that the fact is related to a work issue, and indicated that they are investigating “if they all worked there or not.”
