A gunman opened fire Sunday in a training center for young Christian missionaries outside Denver, Colorado, killing two people and wounding two others, CNN reported, citing police.

The lone gunman walked into Youth with a Mission, began shooting and then ran away, according to a Susan Medina of the Arvada Police Department.

Peter Warren, the center's co-founder, said a man and a woman were killed. He said the woman was from Minnesota and the man was from Alaska. He did not provide their ages.

"These kids were like our kids, you know?" he told CNN affiliate KUSA. "It's just such a tragedy."

He said a memorial service for the two would likely be held Tuesday or Wednesday.

About 45 people were in the building at the time of the shooting, she said.
