A woman just suspended from her job and escorted from a Kraft Foods plant in northeast Philadelphia returned with a handgun and opened fire Thursday, killing two people and critically injuring a third, police said.

The 43-year-old shooter was taken into custody inside the plant of the nation's largest food manufacturer, whose products include Oreo cookies, Philadelphia cream cheese and Oscar Mayer bacon, Lt. Frank Vanore said.

The woman had returned to the building in a car 10 minutes after being escorted out and passed through a barrier before re-entering the building, he said. Before being apprehended she fired a shot at police officers, he said.

They fired her, escorted her off the plant then she got back in. Someone screwed up.

Sounds as though she knew she would be fired, got fired, thought about how bad the economy is in getting another job then blasted away.

Obomanomics has a lot of people living on the edge. I'm sure we're going to be hearing a lot more of this stuff happening. It's going to take a generation or two to fix all the damage.

She was stopped by security guards but the guards were unarmed. She forced them to let her back in..
