At least four people were injured when a shooter entered a Walmart in the US city of Dayton in Ohio on Monday (November 20, 2023) and opened fire inside it, police said.
The attacker later took his own life.
The victims were rushed to the hospital for treatment.
Beavercreek police tweeted: “There is no active threat. A male walked into the Walmart in Beavercreek around 8:35 p.m. Monday and began firing a gun, injuring four people. The victims were transported to area hospitals and their conditions are unknown at this time.”
