Seven people have died in a shooting at a party in Seattle in the

western US state of Washington, police say.

Officers arrived at the house in the eastern district of Capitol

Hill early on Saturday morning. The gunman is said to have shot himself when

confronted.

Another three people were taken to hospital with

gunshot wounds, a police spokesman said.

" It's one of the largest

crime scenes the city has ever had, " Seattle police chief

Gil Kerlikowske said.

The dead were all believed to be in their early 20s. It is not

thought the gunman lived in the area.

Mr Kerlikowske said an officer in the neighbourhood heard shots

fired at just after 0700 local time (1500 GMT).

When he went to investigate, he found one person staggering out

of the house with a bullet wound.

The officer confronted another man with a shotgun, who turned it

on himself after being told several times to put it down, Mr Kerlikowske

said.
