Police say five people have been killed in a shooting at a bank building in downtown Louisville and the suspected shooter is also dead.
Police say six others were brought to the hospital after the April 10 morning shooting.
The Louisville Metro Police Department said on April 10 on Twitter there was an ongoing situation and asked people to avoid the area.
“There are multiple casualties,” police said in the tweet. Police described it as an “active aggressor.” Witnesses who left the building told WHAS-TV they heard gunfire inside the building.
Numerous police vehicles were seen on television footage. WHAS reporters said they saw people being taken from the scene in ambulances.
In a tweet, Kentucky Gov. Andy Beshear said he was heading to the scene.
“Please pray for all of the families impacted and for the city of Louisville,” Mr. Beshear said.
The FBI said its agents were also responding to the shooting.
