BUFFALO:Authorities say five people were shot and wounded in an attack at a Minnesota health clinic on Tuesday and that they arrested a 67-year-old local man.
The five people were taken to hospitals after the attack at the Allina clinic in Buffalo, a community of about 15,000 people roughly roughly 40 miles (64 kilometers) northwest of Minneapolis. Kelly Spratt, the president of Buffalo Health, said during a news conference that he didn't know the condition of the wounded.
The alleged shooter was identified as Gregory Paul Ulrich, of Buffalo. Wright County Sheriff Sean Deringer said Ulrich was well-known to authorities before the attack.
“We have had several calls for service dating to 2003,” Deringer said.
Police Chief Pat Budke said the attack did not appear to be an instance of domestic terrorism, though he didn't elaborate.
