Person Dies In Pflugerville Indoor Firing Range Shooting (UPDATE)

UPDATE: A person died from injuries sustained after a self-inflicted gunshot wound at a shooting range on Sunday, according to reports.

The person was critically injured from what officials later described as a self-inflicted wound sustained on Sunday afternoon at Red's Indoor Range North, 1908 W. Pecan St., the Austin American-Statesman reported. The victim later succumbed to the injury at a local hospital.

Police eliminated foul play, categorizing the incident as an isolated one. The victim was the only person involved in the shooting, officials added. Police have not released the identity of the person shot.

This is at least the second self-inflicted injury call at a Red's Indoor Range location in as many years. In May 2016, police were called to the other gun range location at U.S. 290 near William Cannon Drive amid reports of an attempted suicide.

Police said no other people were harmed in that incident, providing no further details.
