This is very close to my home. And I have had several friends who have worked here over the past few years.

Just horrible news to wake up to.

So, did he shoot at others on the way to the FedEx site? This man's niece was shot at a nearby Mobil station by the gunman.

This man’s niece was in her BMW SUV at the Mobil gas station at Ameriplex and Exploration Drive when a gunman fired. In the next tweet I’ll show the damage. She was shot in the shoulder, but is expected to be okay.

On CNN, it sounds like he started shooting as soon as he got out of his car in the parking lot. Didn't get very far inside the facility.

Have seen this facility many times from I-70, driving through Indianapolis.
