Multiple people shot at Rhode Island ice rink in domestic violence-related murder-suicide

A shooting at a Rhode Island ice rink on Monday left two people dead, including a suspect, and four others injured, during a domestic violence altercation that turned deadly, sources told Fox News. 

The gunshots rang out at the Dennis M Lynch Arena in Pawtucket during a hockey game between Coventry and Blackstone Valley Schools, WPRI.com reported. 

A source with the Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms, and Explosives (ATF) told Fox News that the shooting stemmed from a domestic violence incident and turned into a murder-suicide. 

The source said the gunman killed his wife and shot two of his kids before turning the gun on himself. He shot his third child - who is currently hospitalized, the source said.

"District officials were notified of the situation while the team was at the arena and immediately began coordinating with event staff and law enforcement. An officer from the Coventry Police Department is on scene and remains with the students," he said.
