Several people were shot in a shooting at a casino hotel near Green Bay, Wisconsin Saturday night, a tribal official said.
Melinda J. Danforth, director of intergovernmental affairs at Oneida Nation, which operates the casino, said up to seven or eight people could have been hit.
The gunfire broke out in a dining room at the Radisson Inn, which was connected to the Oneida Casino in Ashwaubenon, Wisconsin, just outside Green Bay, she said.
A suspect is in custody, she said.
Police were still clearing rooms to be safe, Danforth said.
“Crowd control is a problem for us because people are trying to see what happens,” she said.
The casino tweeted earlier that it was dealing with “an active shooting situation” and that several law enforcement agencies were on site.
Local police and fire departments refused to provide any information.
The casino tweeted that all of its facilities were closed until further notice.
