MILWAUKEE (Reuters) - At least one gunman opened fire during morning services on Sunday at a Sikh temple in Oak Creek, Wisconsin, and remained on the loose inside the temple, possibly holding hostages, according to witnesses.


Police were on the scene at the Sikh Temple of Wisconsin, located about 20 minutes south of Milwaukee. Police officials declined to comment.


It was unclear how many people may have been wounded in the shooting. But two witnesses said the shooter or shooters were still inside the building.
