Reports say man opens fire in U.S. town
NEW YORK (Reuters) - A man opened fire inside a building in the New York town of Binghamton, shooting as many as four people, local media reported, citing police scanners.
As many as 41 people were inside the building when a man entered and started shooting, WBNG television news reported on its website.
Some people escaped to a basement and more than a dozen were hiding in a closet, WBNG said, reporting that emergency dispatchers had been in contact with people inside.
Police closed down surrounding streets and locked down a high school, WBNG said.
Binghamton is about 150 miles (240 km) northwest of New York City.
