TRAVERSE CITY — An employee at a Traverse City area indoor shooting range attempted CPR on a man found unresponsive with a gunshot wound today, but authorities said the man died.

Kevin Cook, who also was at Shooters Indoor Gun & Archery Range Tuesday, told the Traverse City Record-Eagle he and an employee found the man on the ground with a gunshot wound to his chest at about 3 p.m. A gun was nearby in a plastic crate given to customers with rental guns.

Grand Traverse Sheriff Tom Bensley confirmed the man's death but would not identify him or provide further details, the Record-Eagle reported.

It was not known whether another person may have been involved.

Cook told a Traverse City reporter it appeared no one else was in the immediate area at the time.

The shooting range is located in Blair Township, near Traverse City, and opened in July 2011, according to information posted on the range's website.
