TROTWOOD, Ohio—Police in the Dayton area say they believe a semiautomatic handgun was used by the gunman who shot up a bar overnight.

Four men and two women were injured and were taken to hospitals. Trotwood police say two of them were seriously injured.

Police Sergeant John Porter says the suspect pulled a handgun out of his belt around 2 a.m. and fired 10 to 15 rounds, then fled immediately after discharging his weapon. Porter says police don’t know what caused the situation, though several fights had broken out inside the bar earlier in the night.

No arrests have been made.
