Two people were killed and two wounded Friday morning in a shooting at a government facility in North Carolina, according to city officials, who said they had stabilized the situation.
Winston-Salem City Manager Lee Garrity said in an email that two city employees are dead and two people are injured. He said the wounded have serious but not life-threatening injuries.
No other information about victims in the shooting at a Winston-Salem public works building would be released until a 2 pm EST news conference, Assistant Police Chief William Penn Jr. told reporters.
Winston-Salem city spokesman Ed McNeal said: "There is no ongoing threat."
"They're shooting. Run!' Black said of the people leaving the building. "Fight or flight. I just followed suit."
