Brandon Scott Hole, 19, was identified as the alleged shooter of the FedEx warehouse in Indianapolis.
The alleged gunman's family warned authorities about his potential for violence before the mass shooting, according to CNN.
The shooter pulled the weapon out of his trunk and allegedly started shooting for up to two minutes during a FedEx night shift change, witnesses claimed.
Employee Jeremiah Miller told WISH that he watched the mass shooting unfold inside the warehouse, saying: "I saw a man with a submachine gun of some sort, an automatic rifle, and he was firing in the open.
"I immediately ducked down and got scared and my friend’s mother, she came in and told us to get inside the car."
The FBI searched Hole’s home upon the shooting.
What happened to Brandon Scott Hole? Cops arrived at the scene on Mirabel Road at about 11pm and found several bodies scattered all over the warehouse, one reportedly being Hole’s.
It is believed he shot himself in the head after police arrived at the facility.
In police dispatch audio published by Heavy, the suspect was described as a "white male wearing a hat" or hoodie and carrying a rifle type weapon.
The shooting claimed the lives of eight people and injured over 60

"Unless there’s another person out, this is going to be our suspect here."
What did police say about the FedEx shooting? Indianapolis police spokesperson Genae Cook told reporters: “Today it is very heartbreaking and, you know, in the Annapolis Metro Police Department, the officers responded, they came in, they went in and they did their job.
"And a lot of them are trying to face this because this is a sight that no one should ever have to see."
Cooks added that officers are still working to identify the shooter and said that "this is going to go long into the morning."
"We're still trying to ascertain the exact reason and cause for this incident," Cook said.
A witness claimed that Hole worked at the facility, though police have yet to confirm that.
The FedEx facility employs more than 4,500 people and it is the company's second largest hub in the world.
60 people injured?
That is a whole lot people get shot/shot at that didn’t die. Bullets kill people, they rarely cause just flesh wounds.
Again, we are assuming his “family” is like ours. Obviously they did not take it that seriously.
Ok I checked the neighborhood and looked at its public schools. It is a very mixed area racially so we still don’t know his race. The individual in your link is holding an AR15 BUT the background looks like New Mexico, Colorado or some other western state. It doesn’t look like the fellow is in Indiana. Might be the wrong guy.
FedEx Memphis, is that the facility Chuck Noland worked out of?

!!!!!!!!!!
Hard to face the reality of what is happening in middle America. Don’t mean trivialize the tragedies. Sure hate what keeps happening.
I;m going to guess that a bunch of those 70 were injured running into things trying to get the F out of there vs being grazed by a bullet.
If it was a .223 being fired into a crowd at shift change, there could have been multiple injuries per bullet fired.
You definitely have the wrong guy. Check the dailymail.co.uk. The shooter was a white kid.
According to local Indianapolis news - there were 8 killed and 6 injured - NOT 60.
Incorrect. Shooter had blue eyes.
PFK
All this crap started when we emptied out the mental health facilities, refused to evaluate and commit people who really belong there, and gave big pharma a boost by putting them all on meds instead of physically controlling them.
The blame here goes to the government infrastructure that was not prepared to isolate this guy when they were warned about him.
Yes, that’s the guy. Or was the guy.
I posted a picture that is not the shooter.
Very sorry.
