UPDATE: 9:40am

A union official says a worker at a supermarket distribution center near Milwaukee shot and killed two co-workers on Wednesday.

Thomas Bennett, secretary-treasurer of General Teamsters Local Union No. 200 said Wednesday that the shootings happened overnight in different locations inside the Roundy’s distribution center in Oconomowoc, about 30 miles west of Milwaukee. Authorities have released few details about the attack, including the names of the shooter and victims.

The facility was locked down temporarily, and police asked motorists to avoid the area near Highway 67 south of Interstate 94. Officers from several area agencies were on the scene.

The Roundy’s complex employs close to 1,000 people, according to the Journal Sentinel.

As of 9 o’clock this morning the Milwaukee County Medical Examiner’s Office says the shooting at the distribution center and a separate shooting in Milwaukee County are related.
