WASHINGTON, 27 March (BelTA - Xinhua) - At least one person was killed and 14 others were wounded early on Sunday in a nightclub shooting in Cincinnati in the mid-east U.S. state of Ohio, local media quoted police as saying.

"There was a shooting here this morning around one o'clock," Cincinnati Police Department Sgt. Eric Franz said on ABC News.

"It's a large and complicated homicide scene," he said.

"At this point we have multiple witnesses we're interviewing and we have nobody in custody," he added.

Paul Neudigate, Cincinnati assistant police chief, said, "There are no indications this incident is terrorism related," adding the motive behind the shooting remains unknown.

Hundreds of people were in the nightclub at the time of shooting, police said.
