An Iowa school superintendent says two of the six people who died in a fatal shooting that authorities believe was carried out by a relative were students in his district.

Muscatine Community School District Superintendent Clint Christopher did not disclose the victims' names, ages or class years.

In a message to the school community, he also said two additional people who died in Monday's shootings were school district employees.

Police say the suspect, 52-year-old Ryan Willis McFarland, killed himself when confronted by officers.

Muscatine Police Chief Anthony Kies said Tuesday that he planned to release more details about the victims, including their ages, during an evening vigil.
