AKIPRESS.COM - Four people have died in a shooting at a Chicago hospital, including two female members of staff and a police officer, and the gunman himself, BBC reports.
The two women killed were a doctor and a pharmaceutical assistant, Mayor Rahm Emanuel confirmed.
A police spokesman said the gunman had died in an exchange of shots, but it is not clear if he took his own life.
A second officer avoided injury after a bullet fired in his direction became lodged in his gun, police say.
Officials say the gunman appeared to target a woman with whom he was in a relationship but they do not suggest a motive.
