Shooting in US Florida apartment building leaves 7 dead

Seven people were killed, including the gunman, in an overnight shooting at a South Florida apartment building, authorities said. Hialeah police Sgt. Eddie Rodriguez told Fox News that the gunman was shot dead by a SWAT team member following a standoff. During the hours-long standoff, the gunman held two hostages, who were unharmed. At least four victims were found dead inside the building, Rodriguez said early Saturday. At least one victim, a male, was found dead across the street from the building. It was unclear if the victim was purposely targeted or if he was hit by a stray bullet, according to Rodriguez. WSVN.com reported that the manager of the West 46th Street apartment building and his wife were among the victims. Police did not identify the gunman or the victims early Saturday.
