A man burst into a sign-making business in Minneapolis, fatally shooting the owner and three others in the office before turning the gun on himself, family and officials said Friday.

Police have not revealed the name or apparent motive of the shooter who injured at least four others in the Thursday afternoon attack, and say a search of the suspect’s home turned up nothing.

Reuven Rahamim, 61, was shot to death in “a senseless act of violence” at Accent Signage Systems Inc. in Bryn Mawr, a mainly residential neighborhood on the northwest side of the city, son-in-law Chad Blumenfield said in a statement.

“Other members of the Accent family tragically lost their lives as well, and we mourn their loss,” Blumenfield said. He provided no details. Authorities have not revealed the names of the others who died in the rampage.
