Beloit Elementary School Locked Down After Deadly Shooting

BELOIT, Wis. (AP) -- Police in Beloit say one person was killed and another was injured after a shooting and a car crash near an elementary school.

Police Capt. William Tyler tells WISC-TV in Madison the incident started around 1 p.m. Tuesday on the city's East Side among a group of people standing on a corner. He says a suspect chased and shot at a person in a car, which crashed onto the grounds of Merrill Elementary School.

Officers found a victim dead inside the car along with a second person who was injured. Tyler says the victim died from gunshot wounds.

The school was in lockdown after the incident. Police were still looking for at least one suspect on the loose Tuesday afternoon.
