Indianapolis Deputy Police Chief Craig McCartt said the gunman arrived at the processing center near the Indianapolis airport and opened fire at random in the parking lot before moving inside, where he continued to spray bullets.

"There was no confrontation with anyone that was there," he said. "There was no disturbance, there was no argument. He just appeared to randomly start shooting."
The shooter is believed to have turned the gun on himself before police arrived, McCartt said.
He was also a former FedEx employee at the same facility, according to the parcel company. Most employees there are barred from bringing their cellphones inside, which led to confusion and anxiety as friends and family sought to get in touch with loved ones after news of a mass shooting.
McCartt said during a Friday afternoon news conference that they had responded to Hole’s home last year after reports of a man voicing suicidal ideas, which he repeated to responding officers. He had reportedly just purchased a shotgun, and the police department’s behavioral unit took him into custody and then to a hospital for mental health treatment.
