At Least 3 Shot at Westerly, Rhode Island Housing Complex

US State police say three people have been reported shot in Rhode Island.

Colonel James Manni told The Providence Journal that the shooting happened on Thursday morning at an elderly housing complex in Westerly, a town along the Connecticut state line.

The newspaper said the shooter appeared to still be at large and that a state police tactical team was responding. The extent of the injuries of the shooting victims isn't yet clear.

Reports of gunfire at the Babcock Village apartments prompted Westerly schools, the local hospital and at least one nearby business to order a lockdown as a precaution.
