This journalist is covering things on twitter, been reading her tweets to depress myself further:
Kristen Barbaresi
What was left at the scene (

Sorenson and Owen were part of the "dancing grannies", Hospel was a husband and volunteer with the group.
There are 18 children at the hospital, 10 of which in ICU. 6 are in critical condition, 3 in serious condition and 1 fair condition.
EDIT
About the children, from
Children's Wisconsin twitter account:
18 kids were brought to Children’s Wisconsin Emergency Department. Ages ranged from 3 to 16, which included three sets of siblings. Injuries ranged from facial abrasions, to broken bones, to serious head injuries.
Six of the patients were sent to surgery last night and two additional patients are undergoing surgery today. Two kids were discharged last night. The other 16 were admitted to the hospital.
