MILWAUKEE (AP) – Milwaukee police say they have cleared out more than 20 buildings at one of the nation’s largest breweries after a gunman killed five employees there.
Authorities identified the assailant who attacked the Molson Coors complex on Wednesday as a 51-year-old Milwaukee man who worked there.
Police say he died of a self-inflicted gunshot wound.
The shooting occurred at a sprawling facility that includes a mix of corporate offices and brewing facilities.
More than 1,000 people work there.
By late evening, all employees had been sent home. Executives planned to close the complex for a time.
