The suspect in a mass shooting at a spa outside Milwaukee in the US has been found dead.

Christine Bannister, a dispatch supervisor for Waukesha County communications centre, said 45-year-old Radcliffe Franklin Haughton, of Brown Deer, has been found dead. She could not provide more details.

Police said three people were killed and four wounded in the morning shooting at the Azana Day Spa. Authorities spent much of the afternoon looking for the gunman.

They said they believe the shooting was related to a domestic dispute.

The spa is a two-story, 9,000-square-foot building across from a major shopping mall in Brookfield, a middle-to-upper class community west of Milwaukee.
