“My heart goes out to those impacted by the shooting, to the Oneida Nation and to all of Northeast Wisconsin as we continue coping with this senseless violence,” he said. Rob Cowles, a Republican who represents the Green Bay area, issued a statement saying the community has suffered a “traumatic event.” Republicans who control the Legislature refused to consider either measure. He proposed a so-called “red flag” law that would have allowed judges to take guns away from peopled deemed to be a danger, and a bill requiring a background check for almost all gun purchases. “Our hearts, thoughts, and support go out to the Oneida Nation, the Ashwaubenon and Green Bay communities, and all those affected by this tragedy.”Įvers, a Democrat, called a special legislative session on gun control in the fall of 2019. Tony Evers issued a statement late Saturday saying he was “devastated” to hear about the shooting. “It's unfortunate anytime events like this occur & sad when it hits so close to home.” “We have the smallest and closest community in professional sports,” LaFleur said. Packers head coach Matt LaFleur tweeted condolences Sunday to everyone affected by the shooting. Hill, the tribal chairman, told WLUK-TV that he feels security is tight in the casino but that the tribe may have to consider tougher protocols for the complex depending on investigators' findings. That “brings every agency from around the area to the casino, to the Radisson,” he said of the large law enforcement presence.

Pawlak said authorities called for a “tactical alert” after receiving the report of an active shooter. There had to have been 50 cop cars that came by on the highway. “We took off running towards the highway. “All of a sudden we hear a massive flurry of gunshots - 20 to 30 gunshots for sure,” Westphal told WBAY-TV. Gambler Max Westphal said he was standing outside after being evacuated from the building for what he thought was a minor issue. “Whether or not they all worked there, we’re still working on,” he said. Pawlak, the sheriff's department lieutenant, wasn’t sure if the shooter was a former restaurant employee but said “it appears there’s some relationship that had to do with employment.” Thank God we’re OK, but obviously we wish the best for everybody who’s been shot.” “But he was shooting pretty aggressively in the building, so I wouldn’t doubt him hitting other people. “I know for sure two, because it happened right next to us, literally right next to us,” Yatim said.
