A witness that didn’t reveal his name, reported to WTHR of Indianapolis that he was working inside the FedEx facility when the shooting started. He said he heard gunshots and when he saw from where the gunfire is coming, he saw the gunman. He than ducked when the gunman fired more shots. The unnamed witness said that he managed to run out of the facility, and saw one person on the floor on his way out.

Unfortunately, US experiences frequent shootings, with the most recent one in April 8 when one person was killed and several others injured when a gunman entered a cabinet company facility in Bryan, Texas and opened fire.

More details to follow.
