One person has died and five others were wounded in a shooting Tuesday night at a cosmetics warehouse in Ohio, officials said.
The victims have been transported to hospitals and the suspect is no longer believed to be at the building, said Josh Poland, a spokesperson for the city of New Albany.
New Albany Police Chief Greg Jones described the shooting just before 11 p.m. as a “targeted type of attack” and said officials don't believe the suspect poses a general threat to the public.
“We have a person of interest and we’re looking to locate them and bring them into custody," he said during a press conference. A firearm was found at the scene.
The shooting happened at the warehouse for a company that makes products including cosmetics and toiletries. Police did not immediately provide a motive for the shooting or the conditions of those wounded.
About 150 people were evacuated to a neighboring building, according to Jones.

The elephant in the room. And which bold leader is tackling the No.1 problem in the US today?

Shootings and mass murders have been a dime a dozen ever since the Europeans arrived in USA.

Obviously a comment from someone who is not American. By the way fentanyl is the #1 killer, not murder.

My home state of Ohio - turned into a crime-infested hell-hole by the Repubs...
Guns for everyone - no background check and no red flag law....
So any nut can carry a concealed Glock and take out as many as he wants...
Red States run red with blood...

And? Just another day in 'Merka. When they ban guns and this kind of thing happens, I might start to care.

Patrick Crusius is white. Whites kill more in mass shootings overall. Just look at Sandy Hook. In Japan there are no mass shootings. Trump people come to Japan with no guns. Why is that?

And yet we aren't posting daily about America being subservient to another country. Well, maybe Israel.

Dango...nice deflection...firearms by homicide or suicide kill more than 45,000 annually in the Us.
Fentanyl more,
Fentanyl not killing other people, just the user I would guess.
Thats one difference.
Both are appalling stats. whatever way you look at it

The US today is like Tombstone, not wanting to be regulated or controlled. The cowboys rule the roost and it's chaos in town. The people are afraid, but no-one has the guts to stand up to the Clantons and McLaurys, not even the Sheriff, and there is little respect for the law.
Then the Earps impose some rules, regulations, law, whatever you want to call it. No guns in town, register them upon arrival at the hotel or livery stable, and they expect folks to have faith and stick by the basic rules. Nothing too radical. Just some sensible tweaks in place, enough to hold the peace. Simples.
