Jakarta, CNN Indonesia –
Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI) The United States claims to have interviewed the perpetrator mass shooting FedEx, Brandon Hole (19) last year. Before shooting himself, Hole fired a number of shots which killed eight people and injured five others in the building FedEx, Indianapolis, Friday (16/4).
The FBI claims to have interviewed Hole last year after receiving a call from his mother. The mother reported that her son was threatening suicide. At that time, FBI agents asked a number of questions and confiscated Hole’s pistol.
The Indianapolis Police have searched a home and confiscated evidence which includes Hole’s computers and other electronic media. The police have not been able to confirm whether Hole’s gun is legal or not.
Indianapolis Police Deputy Chief Craig McCartt said the mass shooting occurred in a matter of minutes. At that time, about 100 FedEx employees were changing shifts and resting for dinner.
“There was no confrontation with anyone who was there. There was no disturbance, no argument. He immediately started shooting randomly,” McCartt was quoted as saying by AP.
An eye witness also saw that Hole came and immediately shot and shouted.
“I saw a man come out with a gun in his hand and he started shooting and he started screaming things I couldn’t understand. What I ended up doing was ducking down to make sure he didn’t see me,” eye witness Levi Miller told WTHR -TV.
Eight people who died in the shooting were Matthew R. Alexander (32), Samaria Blackwell (19) Amarjeet Johal (66), Jaswinder Kaur (64), Jaswinder Singh (68), Amarjit Sekhon (48), Karli Smith (19). , and John Weisert (74). Four of the shooting victims were members of the Sikh community, a South Asian faith.
