Shootings At Jewish Community Center And Village Shalom Leave At Least 1 Dead And 1 Injured

UPDATE: Three people are dead after shootings at two Jewish Centers in the Kansas City area, authorities say, while a person of interest has been taken into custody.

DEVELOPING: One person reportedly has been killed in two separate shootings at two known Jewish centers in Kansas.

Officials who spoke to Fox 4 said that one person was shot and subsequently killed at the Jewish Community Center in Overland Park. Another person, reportedly, was injured in a nearby shooting at the Village Shalom, which is an assisted living facility.

The Jewish Community Center is on lockdown and it is not yet known where the shooter is, Fox 4 reports.

“My son and I were walking into the Jewish Community Center this afternoon for an umpire clinic, around the westside and all of the sudden we heard a gunshot, a pretty loud gunshot,” witness Mike Metcalf called Fox 4. “I turned to look to my right and I can see a man standing outside a car with a shotgun, what to me looked like a shotgun, and there was somebody laying on the ground.”
