At least four people were hospitalized, including one person with critical injuries. Two others were treated at the scene and released. No law enforcement officers were injured.

Police spokeswoman Genae Cook told reporters officers found an “active shooter incident” at a Fedex facility near the city’s international airport, and believe the gunman died by suicide.
