KENNESAW, Ga. (AP) — A shooter described as being armed with an assault rifle and having bullets strapped across his chest “like Rambo” opened fire Tuesday morning at a FedEx station outside Atlanta, wounding at least six people before police found the suspect dead from an apparent self-inflicted gunshot.
Police rushed to the center after someone called to report an active shooter at 5:54 a.m. After surrounding the perimeter and working to clear the building, officers found the suspect dead, Cobb County police spokesman Michael Bowman said. He said there were no immediate reports anyone else had been killed.
FedEx clerk Liza Aiken said she was working inside when she heard something, dropped, looked to her left and saw the gunman.
“He had bullets strapped across his chest like Rambo, a huge assault rifle and he had a knife,” Aiken said in a parking lot where employees were gathering not far from their workplace. Before she could continue, a woman wearing a FedEx jacket told Aiken to stop talking and led her away.
Six people wounded at the FedEx station were taken to nearby Wellstar Kennestone hospital, where spokesman Tyler Pearson said one victim was rushed to surgery with potentially critical injuries. Others were less serious.
“A lot of them were able to walk off the ambulance,” Pearson said.
David Titus, a FedEx truck driver, said he was just coming to work when he saw someone walk up and shoot a security guard in the abdomen outside the building. He said he could hear more gunshots after the gunman went inside.
“It was chaos,” Titus said. “Everyone was running ducking and hiding, trying to get out of there.”
FedEx said the facility about 25 miles north of Atlanta is a hub where packages are sorted and loaded onto vehicles for delivery. It’s located next to the general aviation airport for suburban Cobb County.
Police kept roads leading to the FedEx station blocked after the shooting. Dozens of workers were taken by car and bus to the parking lot of a skating rink about a half-mile away to call relatives for rides. Some family members got out of their cars and hugged the workers. Several employees said they had been told not to speak with reporters.
The identity of the suspected shooter was not immediately released.
The company was cooperating with police but had no details to release about the shootings Tuesday morning.
“We are aware from the authorities of the situation,” said Scott Fiedler, a FedEx spokesman. “Our primary concern is the safety and wellbeing of our team members, first responders and others affected.”

Typical federally-sponsored false-flag shooting because Georgia just passed a law allowing open carry anywhere.
I’ll send out my token condolences to the families of the shooting victims, but when all of the facts are in, you’re going to find out that they were only shot because YOU allowed these psychopaths to remain in power.

Yea it possibly has something to do with that Open carry thing that just passed. Unfortunately, if people were like me, I wasn’t even thinking about that. So I don’t think this will have any impact on that bill. If anything, it will make people want to go out and buy more guns to protect themselves.
The elites and the idiots in government just don’t seem to get it. The more false flag shootings they do and the more shooting incidents that the MSM publicizes, the more the people are going to buy guns and ammo, rather than give up their guns. I don’t understand why they haven’t learned this by now. Unless that’s what they want.
Good thinking, Jolly Roger! My first thought was definitely
“false flag”, but did not think about the Georgia connect until I read your post.
And like my husband said when I told him about it, “Don’t the shooters always kill themselves?”
My condolences to the families of those shot also, but perhaps no
one was really shot.
This is getting insane!!!
Exactly. Once again, the shooter SHOT HIMSELF. Dead men tell no tales.
I mean seriously. How many times are the people going to fall for this same false flag story over and over again?
Why is no one asking why these shooters are never taken alive? It just boggles my mind.
Guess they needed an excuse to supply ammo at the Fed Ex office now.
What a joke. Dressed up like Rambo? Where’s the exploding arrows and grenades then? Did he wear a bandana around his head? Did he say, “I’m your worst nightmare?”
I mean seriously, this the best they can come up with? Rambo? Pathetic.
Yes, NC, I am still chuckling about the “Rambo” statement. This is what makes be believe that perhaps no one was actually shot, like
all their other “falsies”.
And of course he had an assault rifle and was covered with
ammo!!! But you know, the frightening part of all of this, is that
most of the sheep who are watching this right now on CNN will fall for it hook, line and sinker. And I am ashamed to say that some of them are members of my family and friends.
The fedgov has been working on Fedex for a few years now, I have followed it in the msm, so they are now using that business for false flag events this is the second in as many mouths i.e. the bus false flag in ca. and now this.
Oh yea, that’s right. I almost forgot about that FedEx truck in Ca. Good point, Joe.
If this really happened, how did the “shooter” suicide himself with an assault rifle? Oh yeah, he just casually took off a shoe and sock, took the barrel in his hands, and pulled the trigger with his big toe. Right.
Or, another false flag courtesy of the criminals in the usurped government, AKA FBI, ATF, CIA, Mossad, mercenaries (Blackwater, Academi, Xe, etc.), your pick, with another drugged/programmed patsy conveniently offed, in the town of Kennesaw that passed a law that all residents must be armed.
Or, it’s a LEO get together at FedEx for morning tea and crumpets with one trying to lead a sing along of “YMCA”: http://www.wsbtv.com/gallery/news/local/shooting-kennesaw-fedex-facility/gCKW6/#5176709.
And the employees are terrified and severely traumatized: http://www.wsbtv.com/gallery/news/local/shooting-kennesaw-fedex-facility/gCKW6/#5176717.

OMG! Seriously? There were that many police for that ONE guy?
BAHAAHAHAAHAAHA!!! OMG, that’s so pathetic.
That’s like the entire police force and two SWAT teams. Talk about overkill which says FALSE FLAG all over it. If this was any normal shooting, there would be 2 or 3 cops at the scene. What a joke.
QUICK! Someone rob the bank on the other side of town, as the entire police force is busy with this false flag.
Seriously. One of these days, the police are going to get caught with their pants down as someone is going to take advantage of this situation.
NEVER put all your eggs in one basket. EVER!
ya know NC I thought this too. and frankly surprised it hasn’t happened already.
I also noticed fires breaking out every so often, the last time it happened I was thinking Rumsfield’s boys.. Or Dick Cheney’s boys…
Back when DHS first started scaring everyone with dirty bombs, I thought, how simple it would be to leave a coffee can of plutonium in a forest fire. But hey with Fukushima and the WIPP and Hanford we already have dirty bombs in our FACES.. which now these facts ought be injected into further DHS dirty bomb talk scare tactics. How can they care about a dirty bomb when they don’t care about Fukushima, WIPP, and hanford? The fact is if a dirty bomb goes off, we the people are on our own with it, until the .gov interferes with us of course…
(hope this makes sense, seems wordy to me, but I ain’t here for English class.)

Yep, the employees definitely look terrified (sarcasm).
I think they are saying, “Got a cigarette? What are you doing after work? Wanna come over for dinner and a game of poker later? Maybe smoke some weed, too, while we’re at it?”
Thanks for posting the links, Enbe! I had to be away from home all afternoon and came right back to From the Trenches when I got home.
I cannot believe how many officers, etc. they have just “milling” around there. Anyone who looks at these pictures and thinks that this really happened, there is no hope for them.
Yes, those employees looked like they were really shaken up!
What a joke!!!
“suspect dead from an apparent self-inflicted gunshot”
Ok why is it that these guys always have a self inflicted wound? They say dead men tell no tales. That’s not true. With the right autopsy dead men speak volumes. However the corner they will use has a quart of JD every night to hide his frustration of being the County flunky and has been offered tickets for him and his family to Disneyland for a week. In this case dead men won’t tell any tales.
It will be interesting, RedHorse, to see how this one plays out.
And I wonder where the “mass shooting” will be next week.
We already had that one down here in Florida where a man was shot in a theatre because he was texting. Believe me, that was such a fake, it was funny!!
LET ME GUESS
GUN FREE ZONE?
Call me crazy but this looks close to the Sandy Hoax debacle. And WTF are those cops doing, lining up for lunch?
