"A shooting took place today at the New Hampshire State Hospital. The situation has been brought under control in the lobby," reported Col. Mark Hall of the local police department. He further assured that all patients of the hospital are now safe.

While "victims" were initially reported by the services, a later statement issued by the New Hampshire state authorities confirmed only the death of the shooter.

"The situation was brought under control, the suspect is dead," reported the State Department of Homeland Security and Emergency Management.
