Three Dead, Including Gunman at Wisconsin Casino/Hotel Shooting

(kiro news) ASHWAUBENON, Wis. — Two people were fatally shot in what police are calling a targeted attack at a Wisconsin casino on Saturday night. The gunman was also killed, police said.

According to the Green Bay Police Department, reports of an active shooter were received from the Oneida Casino and Radisson Hotel in Ashwaubenon, a suburb of Green Bay, WDJT reported.

Update 1:51 a.m. EDT May 2: At a news conference, Brown County Sheriff’s Lt. Kevin Pawlak said the shooting began in the Duck Creek Kitchen and Bar at the Radisson Hotel, which is adjacent to the casino. While Pawlak said the relationship between the shooter and victims was unknown, he said he believed the gunman may have been a former employee or had a personal relationship with an employee at the restaurant.

“We think so, but again, it’s pretty fluid, we’re not 100% sure,” Pawlak said. “I wouldn’t want to put that out, but there’s some relationship that had to do with employment.”

Pawlak added that more information would be given during a future news conference, most likely on Monday.

VICS AND PERP IDENTIFIED IN RADISSON SHOOTING
(thexartsofentertainment.com)
Bruce K. Pofahl was named as the 62-year-old shooter who started shooting at the Oneida Casino and Radisson Hotel and Conference Center close to Green Bay, Wisconsin, on the evening of Saturday, May 1, 2020. Two individuals were murdered, alongside the shooter, and a third casualty was truly harmed.


The suspect was a previous worker who was terminated before in 2021 and was banished from entering the property, Brown County Sheriff Todd Delain said Monday at a question and answer session.

The casualties were recognized as Ian J. Simpson, 35, Jacob T. Bartel, 32, and Daniel L. Mulligan, 28. Simpson and Bartle were slaughtered and Mulligan is in genuine, however stable condition at a Milwaukee medical clinic. Every one of the three casualties worked at the gambling club.


Specialists said it was a “directed occasion, not an arbitrary shooting. It was focusing on a particular casualty.” The objective wasn’t there, so the shooter chose to shoot the objective’s associates and companions, police said at a question and answer session.
