MILWAUKEE (AP) - Three people injured in a fatal shooting at a Sikh temple in a Milwaukee suburb remain hospitalized in critical condition.

A spokeswoman for Froedtert Hospital says the three patients are still in the intensive care unit.

Six people were fatally shot at the Sikh Temple of Wisconsin Sunday in Oak Creek. Police say four were injured, including one person who was treated and then released from the hospital.

Oak Creek Police Lt. Brian Murphy is among the three who remain hospitalized. He was one of the first responding officers and was shot 8 or 9 times as he was tending to a shooting victim outside the temple. Another officer then shot the gunman, identified by authorities as Wade Michael Page.
