Four people are dead after a gunman opened fire at a car wash roughly 50 miles southeast of Pittsburgh early Sunday, officials said.

Police initially reported five fatalities, but lowered the death toll to four during a news conference Sunday afternoon. They noted that the shooter was on life support but not expected to survive.

The four victims’ bodies were discovered by police shortly before 3 a.m. when they responded to a 911 report about a possible shooting at Ed’s Car Wash in Melcroft, Pennsylvania, according to Fayette County District Attorney Richard Brower. Two of the bodies were found in a pickup truck and two others were outdoors by the side of the car wash.

Brower identified the victims as William Scott Porterfield, 27; Chelsie Lou Cline, 25; Courtney Sue Snyder, 23; and Seth William Cline, 21.

Another woman, whom police did not identify but said was in her early 20s, survived by taking cover in the backseat of the pickup truck. She sustained minor injuries from breaking glass
