One person has died and five others have been injured in a shooting 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 11pm (4am on Wednesday GMT) as a “targeted type of attack” and said officials do not 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 neighbouring building, according to Jones.
