A shooting at a bowling alley in Rockford, Ill., on Saturday night left three people dead and three more wounded, according to police.

A 37-year-old man who authorities described as a person of interest was taken into custody soon after police arrived at Don Carter Lanes around 7 p.m., Rockford Police Chief Dan O’Shea said. 

"We have the scene secure and a person of interest in custody," O'Shea told the Rockford Register Star. "When  officers arrived on scene, the shooter was still in the building. No officers fired their weapons that we know of at this point but the individual that we believe is responsible and the only individual we believe at this point to be involved, we have in custody."

No motive was immediately known for what O'She said appeared to be a random attack, and no identities have been released.
