Source: MSN Entertainment

Comedian Amy Schumer expressed her deep condolences on Thursday shortly after police confirmed that three people were shot and killed at a movie theater during a screening of her film “Trainwreck” in Lafayette, Louisiana.

“My heart is broken and all my thoughts and prayers are with everyone in Louisiana,” she wrote on Twitter.

Police said the unidentified gunman–described as an older, white male– opened fired during the 7 p.m. screening of “Trainwreck” at the Grand 16 Theater. He later shot and killed himself.

Seven people have been hospitalized in Lafayette–three of which suffered critical injuries.

And didn't like Amy Schumer being a strong independent woman that doesn't need a man to take care of her.
