Police: 6 dead, 4 wounded in N.M. shooting

ALBUQUERQUE (AP) — A gunman opened fire at an Albuquerque fiber optics manufacturer on Monday, killing five people and wounding four others before turning the gun on himself in what police said was a domestic violence dispute.

The shooting at Emcore Corp. appeared to involve the 37-year-old gunman's ex-wife or girlfriend, police Chief Ray Schultz said. It was not immediately clear whether she was among the dead, or what caliber weapon he used.

"In a situation like this, there are other people in the building and they became, unfortunately, casualties as well," he said.
