Four dead in Wisconsin salon shooting, including gunman
[Updated 6:10 p.m.] Suspected shooter Radcliffe Haughton has been found dead from an apparent self-inflicted gunshot wound, Brookfield police Chief Daniel Tushaus said. He was found inside the salon where the shooting occurred.
[Updated 5:38 p.m.] Froedtert Hospital - the Milwaukee medical facility where four shooting victims are being treated - has "resumed normal operations" after earlier being placed in lockdown mode, the hospital said on its website.
"We are certain that our environment is safe," the hospital said in an update published at 4:25 p.m. CT.
[Updated 5:20 p.m.] President Barack Obama learned of the shooting around 12:30 p.m. CT from homeland security adviser John Brennan and then had a follow-up call an hour later involving, among others, FBI Director Bob Mueller, a White House statement said.
"The president was informed that the shooting did not appear to be terrorism-related," the statement said.
Earlier, Wisconsin Gov. Scott Walker offered '"our thoughts and prayers to the victims" and "the law enforcement and community support they need to heal in the coming days."
[Updated 4:56 p.m.] Authorities working to clear the building where Sunday's bloody shooting took place "believe we have identified what is being described as an improvised explosive device," Brookfield police Chief Daniel Tushaus said.
The device is "hampering our clearing of that building," the chief added.
[Updated 4:41 p.m.] Authorities "believe" three of the seven people shot Sunday have died, according to Tushaus.
The shooting took place around 11 a.m. CT (noon ET), the chief explained.
Authorities have been able to track down a 2003 Mazda Protege linked to the suspect - which was found outside the city of Brookfield - but the suspect remains at large. He's been identified as Radcliffe Haughton, who Tushaus said weighs 270 pounds and stands just over 6 feet tall.
[Updated 4:10 p.m.] Bomb squad personnel are at the scene of the shooting, Brookfield police Lt. John Beth said, pointing to concerns there may be explosives at the site.
[Updated 3:42 p.m.] ATF spokesman Thomas Ahern identifies the suspected shooter as Radcliffe Haughton, 45, of Brown Deer, Wisconsin. The shooting is being investigated as a possible domestic-related incident, according to Ahern. The suspect remains at large.

[Updated 2:07 p.m.] The nearby mall and some other buildings are on lockdown, CNN affiliates report.
[Updated 1:56 p.m.] CNN affiliate WTMJ reports authorities are looking for a suspect.
[Updated 1:54 p.m.] CNN affiliate WISN reports that a witness described seeing two women leaving the spa, apparently injured. One crawled out and was taken by emergency responders. The other was treated by emergency personnel in a squad car.
[Updated 1:32 p.m.] Hospital spokeswoman Nalissa Wienke tells CNN all four people in the emergency room appear to have non-critical injuries. She could not say whether the injuries were due to gunshots. At this time, the hospital does not believe it will need more staff, she said.
[Updated 1:28 p.m.] Numerous emergency vehicles are at a spa in Brookfield, Wisconsin, as local news agencies report a shooting took place.
Four people are in an emergency room, and another three are on their way, said Beth Strohbusch of Froedtert Hospital in nearby Milwaukee.
CNN affiliate WTMJ says the Waukesha Sheriff's Department confirmed there was a shooting, and that witnesses say it was either at or near the Azana Salon and Spa, which is across the road from Brookfield Square Mall.
CNN affiliate WISN called it a "mass shooting."

OK... OK...just stop yelling. We'll all go shoot our neighbors.
here we go again, our monthly mass shooting has happened.
If they were carrying their guns into the spa, this would not have happened. We need to allow guns in spas also.
If they brought guns to the spa, there would have been more confusion and more people would of got hurt. This isnt the wild west!
More victims in America's 'Cowboy Culture' War of whack jobs with firearms gunning down innocent citizens......again
Injured? Another NRA under achiever.
Yeah... so where're the other gun owners to gun down the shooter when you need them most? "Roll-eye"... so call the argument for owning guns for self-defense. I served in the military and now am a security expert. There's no way you can pull out your gun so quickly if you don't put it somewhere obvious, like in your pocket or your belt. I've never seen anyone being saved by another person who has a gun.... I only see, so far, people being killed by guns. Can't pull out their guns fast enough? Until we find a way to know how to differentiate the nuts from the sensible, BAN GUNS!
I agree with you 100% people should get drunk and road rage more! Dont waste bullets on innocent people, just hit the gas pedal. Yeeehhhawww!
There is a lot of talk about gun control already, even though we have no idea what happened in this case. I'll just leave my two cents. Yes, it is hard to draft laws that are going to stop people who don't have any regard for the law. However, the answer should never be that the status quo is acceptable. Don't tell me there is no way to make sure these incidents occur less often.
It's not about changing or keeping the status quo, it is about denying law abiding citizens their rights with laws that don't do anything to fix the problem.
what else is new?
why does anyone need to own a gun?
They're used 2.5 million times a year in defense of a crime and you still ask this question?
Because it makes them feel like a man. Without a gun, they have no alternative way to prove such.
Well uhmm, lets see...the ORIGINAL concept was to protect citizens from a tyranny....but naww!, that would never happen here, would it?.
Source for this stat? or did you just pull it out of your butt?
Several people have their reasons. I can say that from a personal experience that after being attacked ( I'm female ) it served to prevent harm to myself, and the police was able to take the attacker into custody. Unfortunately when guns are in the wrong hands, there are dire consequences.
You are one of the 99%
I will bet all of my firearms the shooter was not a concealed carry permit holder.
There is not a concealed carry law in wi.
I will take you up on that bet and when the facts come out if you don't fork them over, you're comment will hold up in court if I have to sue.
Yes, there is a concealed carry law in Wisconsin. However, I am hearing reports that the business has signs posted to not allow any guns inside. Gee, those signs sure did a lot of good. Plus, they make the business liable for not allowing people to protect themselves.
people like Fareed Zakaria should get banned for being a commy. We need more control more laws and more cops. We need more drunk drivers and people that take xanax. We need more taxes and more banks. We should eat less fresh vegetables and more diabetic sodas. Lets ban breathing. Ban it all.
Another Blue state shooting. Probably a liberal again.
I bet he was one of the unemployed workers that Paul Ryan went to High School with.
If all the women in the spa had been openly carrying machine guns this never would have happened!
Though, the women would have created hundreds of bodies in "collateral damage".
Why do so many gun lovers think that if the victims only had a gun, that every shot would hit the perp and only the perp? Guess what, few bullets would hit their intended target.
In 2009, there were 10,839 fatalities in crashes involving a driver with a BAC of .08 or higher – 32 percent of total traffic fatalities for the year.
We need to make alcohol harder to get, require more oversight and regulation. Then I'm sure we will end alcohol related crashes.
The country is full of mouth-breathers. The world is full of crazy people, always has, always will.
"Laws that forbid the carrying of arms disarm only those who are neither inclined nor determined to commit crimes. Such laws make things worse for the assaulted and better for the assailants; they serve rather to encourage than to prevent homicides, for an unarmed man may be attacked with greater confidence than an armed man."
Thomas Jefferson
