Nine suspects involved in a shooting that occurred Monday in an underground gambling den in Wuhan, capital of central China's Hubei Province, have been caught by police.

The municipal public security bureau said Saturday that the principal suspect, a man surnamed Chen, was captured when police raided his apartment hideout Friday night.

Police also seized homemade guns in the hideout.

One person died and 10 others were injured when a shooting occurred over a gambling dispute in an abandoned house in the city's Jianghan District around 9 p.m. Monday.

The injured are being treated at local hospitals, where two remain in serious condition, according to doctors.
