Six people were killed and two others wounded in a series of apparently random shootings throughout Kalamazoo County, Mich., on Saturday evening. Initial reports said that a 14-year-old girl was killed, but she is critically injured but alive.
NBC News reports that alleged shooter Jason Brian Dalton, 45, was taken into custody early Sunday morning and was being questioned over shootings at three different locations in Kalamazoo County.
“There is no connection between any of them, this all appears to be random,” Kalamazoo County Undersheriff Paul Matyas said.
Reports state that the rampage began at around 6 p.m. on Saturday at a Kalamazoo County apartment complex, where a woman was shot several times, though she is expected to survive.
About 4 hours later, around 10 p.m., police were then called to a car dealership, where two men were fatally shot, one of them an 18-year-old.
About 10 minutes after that, a third shooting took place in the parking lot of a nearby Cracker Barrel restaurant where four women were fatally shot, and a 14-year-old girl was seriously injured, said Kalamazoo Country Prosecutor Jeff Getting.
Dalton was taken into custody at around 12:40 a.m. after being stopped, police said. Getting said a semi-automatic handgun was seized in the arrest.
None of the names of victim’s names were released as relatives are in the process of being notified.
