Crandon, Wisconsin's population is about 2,000.
"It's a pretty tragic situation here," said Forest County Supervisor Tom Vollmar, who lives just outside Crandon, where the people were killed. "There are five or six people dead."
Other details were not immediately available. Messages seeking comment were left with the sheriff's office.
The neighborhood where the rampage happened been blocked off, Vollmar said.
The northeast Wisconsin city of about 2,000 people is about 225 miles north of Milwaukee. The area is known for logging, and fishing, hunting and snowmobiling. |

Police: Wisconsin Shooter Completed Law Training, Never Had Psychological Testing
Monday, October 08, 2007 AP
CRANDON, Wis. � A young sheriff's deputy who opened fire on a pizza
party and killed six people reportedly flew into a rage when he was
rebuffed by his old girlfriend, and others at the gathering called him
a "worthless pig."
A longtime friend told the Milwaukee Journal Sentinel on Monday that 20-
year-old Tyler Peterson came to his door in the hours after the rampage
and calmly explained what he had done.
"He wasn't running around crazy or anything. He was very, very sorry for
what he did," Mike Kegley told the newspaper, adding that he gave
Peterson coffee and food and later called 911.
Peterson told Kegley that he had gone to his ex-girlfriend's house early
Sunday morning in hopes of patching up the relationship after a recent
breakup. But, he said, Peterson lost control when the meeting ended in an
argument and other people started ridiculing him as a "worthless pig."
Kegley declined to comment when reached by The Associated Press.
Police, who declined to provide details of the argument, said Peterson
stormed out, retrieved an AR-15 rifle from his car outside and burst back
into the house firing 30 shots that killed all but one of the people at the
party.
