Police said Monday they are seeking a second person in connection to the shooting assault on a Sikh temple that left six people dead and an officer in critical condition, but did not comment on civil rights groups’ allegations about the primary suspect’s past.
According to The Milwaukee Journal-Sentinel, the Southern Poverty Law Center (SPLC) issued a report describing 40-year-old Wade Michael Page as “a frustrated Neo-Nazi” who led a white-power music group and had been a part of that scene since 2000. Page was shot and killed at the scene by police.
“We’re looking at him as a single shooter right now,” said Oak Creek police Chief John Edwards said of Page, adding that authorities were seeking another man, an unidentified white male spotted filming residents near the scene on his phone, bearing a 9/11-themed tattoo like Page’s on his right arm. Anyone with information on the man is asked to call 1-800-CALL-FBI .VIDEO HERE
