The ministry noted that 11,897 Indonesians live in the Midwest, 877 of them live in Wisconsin. AFP and ABC News reported that the shooting, which occurred in the town of Wauwatosha, wounded seven adults and one teenager. None of the victims sustained critical injuries.

The shooter is still at large. The FBI and Wisconsin state police have yet to determine the perpetrator’s motives. The shooting is the second to occur in Wisconsin since teenager Kyle Rittenhouse gunned down three people, killing two of them, last August.
