Six people are dead after shootings in at least three locations within a tiny town in northwest Mississippi, according to Memphis, Tennessee, NBC affiliate WMC-5. The alleged shooter is in custody.
One took place in a store around 11AM CT, and one man was killed; another, in a home, where a woman was killed and a man was injured, though it’s thought he was hit by an unnamed object rather than gunfire. A third shooting also took place at a residence believed to be that of the suspect’s, and four people were found dead there.
The suspect has not yet been identified, and according to a tweet from Mississippi Gov. Tate Reeves, he acted alone.
All four locations—including where the suspect was arrested—are in rural Arkabutla, a town in Tate County that Memphis CBS affiliate WREG reports is home to less than 300 residents.
