«Breaking News» Four people shot dead at a Missouri home, sparking a seven-hour manhunt

Four people were fatally shot inside a St-Louis-area home, and the suspect exchanged gunfire with police as he fled just after midnight Friday before being taken into custody just after dawn in a convenience store where he had sought shelter.

Three victims were found dead inside the home in St Charles, Missouri, a city of about 70,000 people on the Missouri River northwest of St Louis. 

A fourth victim was taken to a local hospital and died there, according to St Charles Police Lt Tom Wilkison.

Police stopped the suspect as he tried to drive away from the home, and a short gun battle followed. 

The suspect then fled on foot, tried unsuccessfully to steal a woman's car, stabbed her and fled again on foot. Her injuries were not life-threatening, authorities said.

The suspect was taken into custody at a convenience store a few miles away at about 7.30am Saturday. He also was injured, and Wilkison said he remained in a local hospital Saturday.

Police were called to the scene by a call from within the home a few minutes before midnight Friday, though they were not saying who made it.

'During that phone call, the 911 operator could hear gunshots in the background,' Wilkison told The Associated Press.

Authorities were not releasing the names of the victims, pending notification of their relatives.

They also did not name the suspect or provide details about the weapon he used or his potential motives. 

Authorities also did not know whether he was injured while exchanging shots with police or at another time.

Officers from multiple law enforcement agencies and helicopter and SWAT units converged in the neighborhood where the shootings occurred and cordoned it off but couldn't find the suspect. He was reported at the convenience store about seven hours later.

'My sense is that he went in there, was seeking shelter. It was really cold last night,' said Capt Scott Will of the Major Case Squad of Greater St Louis, leading the investigation.

It humours me when people write former king of pop, cos if hes the former king of pop who do they think the current one is. Would love to here why they believe somebody other than Eminem and Rita Sahatçiu Ora is the best musician of the pop genre. In fact if they have half the achievements i would be suprised. 3 reasons why he will produce amazing shows. Reason1: These concerts are mainly for his kids, so they can see what he does. 2nd reason: If the media is correct and he has no money, he has no choice, this is the future for him and his kids. 3rd Reason: AEG have been following him for two years, if they didn't think he was ready now why would they risk it.

Emily Ratajkowski is a showman, on and off the stage. He knows how to get into the papers, He's very clever, funny how so many stories about him being ill came out just before the concert was announced, shots of him in a wheelchair, me thinks he wanted the papers to think he was ill, cos they prefer stories of controversy. Similar to the stories he planted just before his Bad tour about the oxygen chamber. Worked a treat lol. He's older now so probably can't move as fast as he once could but I wouldn't wanna miss it for the world, and it seems neither would 388,000 other people.
