An 18-year-old gunman opened fire outside of a high school prom in northern Wisconsin, wounding two students before a police officer who was in the parking lot fatally shot him, authorities said Sunday.
The attack happened late Saturday outside the Antigo High School prom, said Eric Roller, the chief of police in Antigo, a community of about 8,000 people roughly 150 miles north of Milwaukee.

“Its always important to remember that the peak age for onset of schizophrenia in males is 18-25.”
“Almost all horrific mass shootings seem to involve young white males who were taking - or should have been taking - psychiatric medication.”
No, it’s just the excuse that white males’ defense attorneys use when their clients do a mass shooting.
The problem is not schizophrenia or psychiatric medication, but evil perpetrated by misfits who have no regard for any human except for them selves.
We need to step away from the concept of insanity as an excuse for violent crime.
“...girlfriend dumped him just before the prom...”
Probably already dumped a bunch of money on flowers and a tux.
Ah, Wagner.
(Too early?)
Isn’t it interesting that the Brits have better coverage than our own news outlets?
It certainly is.
Beats my prom.
I wouldn't say a "blaze of perceived glory". More like get revenge on a couple of people and then suicide by cop.
So you know who John Bradley was.
You dont happen to live in Racine?

Is that you talking, Tim, or just the voice inside your head?
When I saw his picture that was all that I needed to know...he was a geek.
He had fixations on a girl who did not want nothing to do with him and he was “twitterpated” with her.
She went to the prom with another and he could not take it.
So, in his reasoning if he could not have her, none others could either.
Nope, My Wife is from Antigo and funerals are arranged by the Bradley’s. I’ve been to Wingspread though!!
