Seven human beings have been shot and wounded Wednesday in the US kingdom of Wisconsin as they gathered for a funeral. 

Around 1 pm, a gunman pulled up in a auto and opened fireplace on a crowd of a hundred humans gathering for a ceremony for a homicide victim at the Serenity Funeral Home in the town of Milwaukee, the Fox 6 website reported.

Acting Milwaukee Police Department Chief Michael Brunson said at a information convention that officers and personnel located seven capturing victims on arrival, according to CNN.

The victims, ranging in age from 24 to forty eight years old, are hospitalized and in stable condition.

Police are investigating the incident and a manhunt has been launched for the suspect, said Brunson.

“This is an untenable situation. We are working feverishly to perceive who committed this act,” he added.

According to the Journal Sentinel, the funeral was once for a man who used to be shot to demise on Sept. 17.
