Shootings at two homes in northwestern Wisconsin left five people dead — including the suspected shooter — and two others injured, authorities said Monday. Chippewa County deputies responded to a 911 call about a shooting at a residence in Lake Hallie at about 10:30 p.m. Sunday and found a man and woman dead, sheriff's officials said.

Two other adults were rushed to the hospital with gunshot wounds, though no details have been given on the extent of their injuries.

Deputies went to a residence in the Town of Lafayette about nine miles away at about 2:30 a.m. on Monday to notify family members of the shooting. When no one answered the door, police forced their way inside, reports ABC Eau Claire, Wisconsin affiliate WQOW. They found a man, a woman and a boy dead of gunshot wounds in apparent homicides, according to Chippewa County Sheriff James Kowalczyk.

Sheriff Kowalczyk said the Vang family did not know German.

Kowalczyk said when German got to the Lake Hallie house he left the vehicle running, got out of the vehicle and shot a round from a shotgun through the door of the home. The sheriff said German was approached by Teng Vang and was shot in the hand. Shortly thereafter, Mai Chang Vang approached the shooter and was also shot in the hand. A total of 10 spent shotgun shells were found at the scene. Both Mai Chang and Teng had to have an arm amputated as a result of the shooting.

Kowalczyk said there were text messages sent between German Jr. and Laile Vang, some of which were sexual in nature. The sheriff said they are looking into how the two got each other's numbers and why they were texting since the families did not know each other.

The sheriff compared this case to the Jayme Closs case up in Barron County. He said it was possible German went to the house with the intent to kidnap Laile Vang. He also said there were certain items found in the vehicle that led them to the Closs comparisons.
