People from multiple families are dead after an incident in an Appleton home late last week.
Investigators with the Appleton Police Department were called to a home in the 3400 block of South Hemlock Lane at around 8:00 last Friday evening (October 30th) on a report of multiple people being shot.
The first officers on the scene attempted to render aid, and one individual was transported by ambulance to an area hospital.
Multiple people were declared dead at the scene, but the exact number was not released, nor were their names, ages, or genders.
