ST. LOUIS (AP) — A man killed his estranged wife Tuesday, then went to the catering company where he once worked and fatally shot two women and himself, police said.

Two other women were also shot at Finninger's Catering Service and were taken to a hospital, police said.

An employee said the gunman entered through the back door with a coat draped over his arm, apparently to hide the handgun.
