KANSAS CITY, Mo. —

An armed security guard shot and killed a man suspected of fatally shooting a woman and injuring 15 more people outside a bar in Kansas City, Mo., police said Monday.

A motive for the attack shortly before midnight Sunday outside 9ine Ultra Lounge was not immediately clear.

Kansas City Police Capt. David Jackson told reporters that responding officers found “a chaotic scene.” A man and a woman were killed, and police believed the shooter was the deceased man, Jackson said. It was not clear if the gunman targeted anyone in particular, he said.

From CBS Kansas City:

The shooter, Jahron Swift,  was a person with a record who was not supposed to have a gun. After starting a fight with several people  outside the club, he was denied entry into the building, got angry, went back to his car to get a gun, came back and started shooting wildly into the bar crowd.
He was killed by an armed security guard. Unfortunately, some young woman was killed by the idiot.
Not clear if he shot people outside the club or managed to barge into the building and then started shooting.
