Multiple other people were injured Thursday night when gunfire erupted at the facility near the Indianapolis International Airport, police spokesperson Genae Cook said.

At least four were hospitalized, including one person with critical injures. Another two people were treated and released at the scene, Cook said.

The shooter wasn't immediately identified, and Cook said investigators were still in the process of conducting interviews and gathering information.

We have a relative who is a mechanic who maintains FedEx aircraft at their facility at that airport. Not sure where the shooting occurred there is an embedded network news report in the article that I think mentioned the package sorting facility but not certain. We are very concerned.

Do you know if the facility allows or prohibits guns for the employees?

They don’t allow firearms in the facility at all.

My understanding is this took place at a ground facility which is close to but not within the airport grounds.

Oh my, and that was my first question regarding gun free zones.

Considering it’s an airport, probably there’s not a lot of guns allowed.

Wake up, people !

The last two or three useful idiot events have ended with the shooter taking his own life.

That means ... there can be, and there is no ... story line or narrative.

Except ...

Ban guns, take away the second amendment and it's a good thing biden is in the white house.


I think the CIA has perfected the mind control thing.

I believe most mass shootings happen in gun free zones.

Just read about it. The report said he was known to police and had mental issues.

“β€œI saw a man with a submachine gun of some sort, an automatic rifle, and he was firing in the open,” Jeremiah Miller said.”

Time to ban automatic weapons.

Oh, wait a minute...

What a remarkable coincidence that these types of killings exploded right after Biden got installed..

Gun Free zones are as effective as masks.

Too bad the leftists can’t follow the science, on this.
