At least three people were wounded in the shooting at the main United States Postal Service Building in Des Moines, police said at the scene.

A suspect has been detained, and all the injuries appear to be non-life-threatening, Sergeant Paul Parizek of the Des Moines Police Department told WHO13.

“We’re secure right now,” Parizek told the Des Moines Register, while also stressing of the wounded: “I didn’t see anything that indicated anyone had any life-threatening injuries.”
