(Rankin, IL) -- Three people are in the hospital following a shooting in rural Vermilion County. Authorities say a man last night went to the home where the parents of his estranged wife lived. He reportedly beat and shot the woman's father and held the mother hostage until his wife came to the house. The woman showed up with her boyfriend, who was then shot by the husband. He then fled to his Rankin home, where he turned the gun on himself as law enforcement was approaching.

Sheriff Pat Hartshorn hasn't released any names of those involved. The investigation continues. Some neighbors said the suspect and his wife had been having marital problems.
