UPDATE: Gunman still on loose
As many as six young people are dead after a man went on a shooting rampage in the small town of Crandon. The gunman is still on the loose, according to elected officials and townspeople.
The Forest County Sheriff's Department is not releasing any information yet, but word is spreading fast around the town of 2,000, said Paul Wagoner, a Crandon City Council member and supervisor on the Forest County Board.
Wagoner said the suspect works for the sheriff's department.
People in the town said they heard that the gunman has not yet been apprehended. The shooter opened fire early this morning at a party in a local house.
The victims are said to be between 16 and 21 years old. Families of the victims are gathering at a local church and are waiting to hear more information.
"Being that it's a close town, it's going to affect nearly everyone," Wagoner said.
