Birmingham News has the story:
BIRMINGHAM, Alabama (AL.com) –Three people are dead — including the gunman — after a shooting this morning at a UPS facility in Inglenook, according to Birmingham officials.
The incident happened just before 9:30 a.m. as police received multiple calls of an active shooter. Several employees fled the scene.
“We have no information regarding the motivation,” said Birmingham Police Chief A.C. Roper. “We have a pretty good idea about what transpired.”
I always think it is ironic when I walk past that sign to pick up a shipment from Lucky Gunner. The sign at the local facility clearly states no firearms or firearms ammunition allowed on premises. I like to point out the markings on my package to them… Cartridges, Small Arms, ORM-D.
UPS helped make this possible by having a criminal protection zone.
