The number of injuries sustained in the attack at Nashua’s Sky Meadow Country Club was not immediately clear. New Hampshire senior attorney general Peter Hinckley said the victim was standing up at the hospital after leaving the venue in his private vehicle, according to NBC News.
Hinckley said at a late-night press conference that an interested person identified only as a man was taken into custody.
“From the investigation, one adult man entered the club and fired several gunshots,” New Hampshire Attorney General John Formera said in a statement. “One adult man was shot dead, killed, and several others were injured.”
Formella said there was no threat to the public after the attack.
Nashua police initially said two shooters were involved, but after reviewing security videos, it was said that only one person appeared to have fired.
Michael Homewood, who was in the venue when the shooting rang, said the attack had occurred at the wedding reception.
“We’re all lucky that it’s only going anywhere,” Homewood said.
