On Sunday, Aug. 5, according to Wisconsin police, Wade Michael Page walked into a Sikh temple in Oak Creek and opened fire with a 9 mm handgun, killing six people.
Page wounded one police officer who had responded to a 911 call about the shooting. Initial news reports said Page was killed when another officer fired his service weapon and wounded the alleged gunman, but more recent news reports quote FBI sources that say Page killed himself after receiving a wound to the abdomen.
