A single gunman is dead after walking into the American Civic Center in Binghamton, New York. He opened fire, killing 13 people and wounding several others before taking his own life.

The gunman drove a car to the back of American Civic Association building to block the exit and entered the front of the building, where he shot two receptionists, Binghamton Police Chief Joseph Zikuski said.

The gunman then proceeded to a nearby classroom and opened fire, Zikuski said.

One of the receptionists called 911 to report the shooting, Zikuski said.

In all, law enforcement removed 14 deceased people from the building and 37 survivors, the police chief said.

Four of those were in critical condition at local hospitals, he said.
