3 fatally shot in Milwaukee, suspect in custody

Posted
MILWAUKEE (AP) -- Milwaukee police say they have arrested a man suspected in the deaths of three people who were fatally shot at a home on the city's southwest side.
 
Police said in a brief statement that the suspect fatally shot a woman and two men around 5:45 p.m. Sunday. The victims were pronounced dead at the scene.
 
WTMJ-TV reports police said at a news conference that the suspect and victims lived together and that a rifle and handgun were recovered from the scene.
 
Neither the suspect nor victims were identified.
 
The killings come a day after a double homicide on Milwaukee's south side. Police say a woman suspected in that attack was later found dead of a self-inflicted gunshot.
