MADISON, Wis. (AP) - Four people, including two children, were injured early Saturday morning in what police described as a domestic shooting in a Madison duplex.

A 42-year-old woman, 38-year-old man, 7-year-old-boy and 8-year-old girl were taken to a local hospital with gunshot wounds, Sgt. Phil Moore said. He could not provide many details.

"I have four injured people and we don't have a straight story on what happened," Moore said.

The victims were coming out of surgery midday Saturday, and some had stabilized, he said. Police were waiting to speak to them later Saturday afternoon.

All lived in the duplex, but Moore didn't elaborate on their relationships.

One victim ran across the street and called police about 6:20 a.m., he said. By 11 a.m., crime scene tape surrounded the single-story, A-frame duplex as officers went in and out of the home.

Police recovered "all the weapons involved," including at least one firearm, Moore said.

Sgt. John Rife said everyone involved has been identified, and there's no threat to the community. He would not elaborate.
