At least three killed in ‘catastrophic’ shooting at Tulsa hospital campus
The gunman has been shot dead, police confirmed.
At least three people have been shot and multiple others injured in a shooting at a medical building which police have described as “catastrophic”.
Tulsa police said multiple people were shot at a hospital campus on Wednesday and “some unfortunately were killed”.
In a Facebook post made by the police department just before 6pm, police said the gunman was dead. It was unclear how the gunman died.
“Officers are currently going through every room in the building checking for additional threats,” police said. “We know there are multiple injuries, and potentially multiple casualties.”
The Natalie building houses an outpatient surgery centre and a breast health centre.
Aerial footage from a TV helicopter appeared to show first responders wheeling someone on a stretcher away from the hospital building.
A reunification centre for families to find their loved ones was set up at a nearby high school.
Agents from the Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms and Explosives were also at the scene, a spokesperson said.
