UPDATE: Somers House shooting leads to six confirmed shooting victims; person of interest in custody

Editor’s note: By the definition that the FBI uses to determine it, this shooting is technically a mass shooting.

We are sorry for your loss. We are sorry for all of our loss. 

SOMERS ⏤ An update from the Kenosha County Sheriff’s Department has raised the number of shooting victims at Somers House to six, and possibly seven.
