Multiple people were shot and some were killed on Wednesday afternoon at a medical building in Tulsa, Okla., the Tulsa police said.

The assailant, who was armed with a rifle, was dead, according to Capt. Richard Meulenberg of the Tulsa Police Department, who said he was not sure if the police had shot him or if he had shot himself.

Captain Meulenberg said that the gunfire had apparently ceased and that the authorities were searching the building “floor by floor, room by room.”

Chief Wendell Franklin of the Tulsa Police said on Twitter that the police had responded to an “active shooter incident” near East 61st Street and South Yale Avenue in Tulsa and next to Saint Francis Hospital.

Have a “good guy with a gun” always around to stop the fatalities at around three or four.

The gunman had recently undergone back surgery, and the doctor who performed the surgery was among those killed.

The shooter bought what is described as an "AR-15 style" rifle from a gun shop the morning of the shooting. He had bought a semiautomatic handgun (which he also used in the assault) from a pawn shop two days earlier.
