By Captain Phil Horter:
22 rounds shot, reloaded once(??!)
No clear motive. No suicide note.
Suspect: Terry Ratzmann 44 New Berlin
May have a list of names of victims by 2p today.
Another briefing tomorrow at 4p.
9mm handgun - There were questions about registration, reporters sounds surprised by lack of registration in Wis as in New York.
Search at his home: .22 cal rifle, no other handguns, did find remaining bullets for 9mm. Fired 22 rounds, 4 live rounds left in the magazine.
Fired from one mag, reloaded another mag and then took his life. (I really wish they would indicate how many rounds the clips held.)
Lived with mother and adult sister.
LEO/investigators took computers, box with remaining 9mm ammo, and .22.
Just walked into the room and began shooting.
Possibly currently employed but that employment was about to end. Was a contract employee.
Two issues: employment status, and something during a previous service where he left the service (later speaker says he was upset by something during the service and left).
