Cops have asked people to avoid the area while the investigation is ongoing. Munson Medical Centre in Traverse City is currently treating all 11 victims, The New York Times reports, citing Megan Brown, Chief Communications Officer for Munson Healthcare . Brown noted that the hospital was still evaluating the extent of their injuries but did not provide specific details.

As of late Saturday, the condition of the victims had not been released.
Walmart spokesperson Joe Pennington said the company is cooperating fully with law enforcement. "We are working with police and defer questions to them right now," Pennington said in an email.
