LAFAYETTE, La., Police said three people, including the shooter, were killed Thursday night in a movie theater in Lafayette, La.

Two died at the scene, including the gunman, and the third in a hospital, Police Chief Jim Kraft said.

Authorities said nine other people were wounded. Craft told reporters the victims' conditions ranged from non-life-threatening to critical.

The bodies of the deceased were still in the theater, Craft told reporters in an overnight briefing. He said the first officers arrived at the scene as soon as 30 seconds after getting the call around 7:30 p.m., because they happened to be very nearby.

Craft said they encountered patrons racing out, then spotted the gunman and heard one shot. He said it's believed the gunman was sitting by himself, and that the first people he shot were sitting directly in front of him. Eye witnesses told police he stood up early during the showing of the movie Trainwreck" and began shooting.

It all happened in the Grand Theater, which is a multiplex. About 100 people were viewing "Trainwreck" when the gunfire broke out.

"It was a typical Thursday night in our community until this happened," Lafayette Chief Administrative Officer Dee Stanley told CBSN.
