A gunman opened fire at a Walmart in Ohio on Monday night and wounded four people before killing himself, police said.
The shooter walked into the store on Pentagon Boulevard in Beavercreek at around 8:35 p.m. and began firing at people inside.
He shot and injured four people who were rushed to area hospitals, Beavercreek Police Captain Scott Molnar said. Their conditions were unknown.
The shooter then turned the gun on himself, police said. His name, a motive for the attack and other details were not immediately released.

"Our thoughts and prayers are with the victims and families impacted by this horrific tragedy," the Beavercreek Police Dept. wrote on X. "We will release more information as it becomes available."
Walmart echoed those words in a statement.
"We’re heartbroken by what’s happened at our Beavercreek, Ohio store," the statement reads. "This remains a developing situation, and we’re working closely with investigators on the scene."
This is the second major shooting incident at the Beavercreek Walmart store in just under a decade.
Police fatally shot John Crawford III, of Fairfield in Butler County, inside the store in 2014 when police mistook the pellet gun he was carrying for a real gun, according to Fox 19.
Angela Williams, who had been shopping at the store at the time of the 2014 shooting, died of a cardiac event as she attempted to flee the store.
