VIRGINIA BEACH, Va. (AP) - Virginia Beach police say a gunman shot and killed three people and wounded three others at an apartment complex.
Police wouldn't say whether the gunman was among the dead or injured. Spokesman Adam Bernstein says police don't know the relationship between the shooter and the victims.
Police were notified around 5 p.m. Wednesday that shots were fired at the Thalia Gardens apartments. One witness says he heard between 10 to 15 shots.
Armed SWAT team members zeroed in on a two-story brick building. They used a loudspeaker around 7 p.m. to order the gunman to come out.
Bernstein says the SWAT team left around 11 p.m. He didn't know if officers ever made contact with the shooter.
Several streets were closed off and nearby residents were told to stay indoors
