Police chief: Temple shooting being treated as "a domestic terrorist-type incident"
[Update 5:16 p.m.] Oak Creek, Wisconsin, police Chief John Edwards said authorities are treating Sunday's shooting at a Sikh temple in that community as a "domestic terrorist-type incident," adding that the FBI will head the investigation. There was a service going on at the time of the shooting. Edwards was not willing to divulge any information about the shooter or the victims. No one is still inside the temple, he said.
[Update 4:52 p.m.] President Barack Obama said Sunday in a statement that "at this time, the people of Oak Creek must know that the American people have them in our thoughts and prayers" and vowed to "provide whatever support is necessary." He added, "As we mourn this loss which took place at a house of worship, we are reminded how much our country has been enriched by Sikhs, who are a part of our broader American family."
[Updates 2:45 p.m.] Greenfield police Chief Brad Wentlandt says four people were found dead inside the temple, three dead outside; one of those outside was the gunman.
[Updates 2:27 p.m.] The suspect shot by an officer was killed, authorities said.
[Update 1:57 p.m.] One officer was shot multiple times, and one suspect was also shot, Greenfield police Chief Brad Wentlandt said. The officer is expected to survive. Wentlandt said the suspect was "put down."
[Update 1:42 p.m.] People are believed to be trapped inside the temple, the area's city councilman said. "As far as I know, it is still an active situation," Alderman Dan Jakubczyk told CNN.
[Update 1:22 p.m.] Two men have been admitted to Froedtert hospital, a hospital spokeswoman said. One is in critical condition in the surgical intensive care unit; the other has been sent to an operating room.
[12:39 p.m.] Authorities responded to an incident at a Sikh temple in Milwaukee County on Sunday, where at least one body was seen lying in the parking lot. CNN affiliate WTMJ is reporting that multiple people may have been shot outside the temple.
WTMJ reports that the gunman may be on the loose. Aerial pictures show multiple bodies in the parking lot.
The shooting happened at about 10:40 a.m. local time, according to WTMJ.
Sikhism rose up 500 years ago in India as a monotheistic religion that rejected the caste system and scriptures of Hinduism.
Are you there? Share your story.
If this keeps up. All guns will eventually be banned. NRA or not.
Tool... I'm sure that's exactly what will happen. >.>
Jeff, your comment points to the fact of how you were probably raised by loser parents. If they are good people, I feel bad they spawned an ignorant moron like yourself.
I totally agree with you.
For those who don't know who Sikh's are. Sikh religion was created from the mountain-frontier state of India to fight against Muslim invaders to the country and to protect women and children from their altrocities. They stand for maintaining peace, respect and defend women and helpless and they are most honest, friendly and trustworthy community who anyone can count on when in crises. India's prime minister Dr. Manmohan Singh is a Sikh, who is also one of the world's greatest economist.
nope they aren't. They are called Sikhs because they are mean Sikhos from India that steal American jobs.
Everytime i see a white guy I am scared I am going to be shot.
My guess is that it is another attack on a Muslim shrine except that Sikh's aren't Muslims. A Sikh member was killed in AZ right after 9/11 as a revenge attack by a white trash trailor park guy mistaken in his anger there as well. They wear a head piece that people mistake as Muslim. Blind hatred mistakenly placed.
"Blind hatred mistakenly placed."
Says the guy who just went on a short rant about caucasians.
Wake up and stop being ignorant
Guns are not the problem. Christians are the problem. Ban Christianity....damned cowards!! They are either molesting little boys or shooting at innocent people or abusing their woman.
No it's the guns. The Christians of Europe and Canada are not like the violent American culture. Civilization does exist. Try New England. Avoid the South.
Hear hear! Get rid of the baptists as well while we're at it. I hear those guys condone gun violence
The shooter was a white male first of all. Four people were killed and and plenty injured, one being an Oak Creek police officer. Find the facts before you start making ignorant comments. First Colorado and now Wisconsin.
Sikhs are from India, which is South Asia. The derogatory you are using refers to those of African descent. You're one of them rednecks, aren't you??
As a native american, "indian" doesn't come from africa. Fyi- all mankind did originate from africa. "Indian" is the term used to talk about someone from India. And what derogatory term are you referring to about a person from Africa, might I inquire?
Only an ignorant uneducated White person doesn't know the difference between Sikh and Muslim!
This article is inaccurate.. Sikh's have their own version of the caste system FYI... they have Jatts (highest caste), etc. etc.
Omg! Jeff, Christopher...Where is all thus hate coming from?
Do some reading!!! Sikhs are the most gentle people on the planet. A lot like the Amish!
agree, some guy that never made it past 3rd grade
Nothing wrong with shootings, so long as the right people are shot.
It is, of course, a tragedy if the innocent are killed.
get and disease Jaf and leave this world
Youre a horrible person. I hope something tragic happens to you or a loved one. Maybe then you'll understand the suffering these people are going through. Get a disease you troll
You tell him girlfriendddddddd
This is a pretty offensive statement made about Sikhism, it is not a religon that rejected scriptures from Hinduism. In fact Guru Nanak was a Hindu and sikhism actually took KHALSA shape when the 10th Guru, Guru Gobind Singh Ji started a separate segment of people who would follow certain rules and would be easily differentiated from the regular Hindus to fight the atrocities of the Muslim rulers.
Guru Gobbledy Weeiner was the first
Sikh Guru back in the 12th century.
