Four people were killed and three others were wounded in an early Saturday shooting during a party at a home in northern Kentucky, police said. The shooting suspect later died after fleeing the home and leading police on a vehicle pursuit that ended with the suspect's car falling into a ditch, police said.

Police heard shots being fired when they arrived at a home in Florence at about 2:50 am, said Jeff Mallery, the city's police chief. Police found seven shooting victims at the home, Mallery told media during a news conference. Four people were found dead, police said. Three people were taken to a hospital in Cincinnati in critical condition. They were expected to recover, Mallery said.
