(CNN) — A man opened fire Friday evening at a yoga studio in Tallahassee, Florida, killing two people and injuring five others, before turning the gun on himself, police said.

People inside Hot Yoga Tallahassee appeared to have fought suspected gunman Scott Paul Beierle, 40, of Deltona, Florida, in an effort to save themselves and others, Tallahassee police Chief Michael DeLeo said.

The gunman, who was already dead when officers arrived, died of a possible self-inflicted gunshot wound, the police chief said.

Police said people fought the man who walked into a Tallahassee, Florida, yoga studio and opened fire.

Police identified the two victims killed asNancy Van Vessem, 61, and Maura Binkley, 21.

 

Police received 911 calls about a shooting at 5:37 p.m. Friday -- minutes after a hot yoga flow class was scheduled to begin, according to the studio's website
