FedEx has confirmed that there has been a shooting on the morning of April 29 at their Kennesaw, Georgia location. This is so scary. Six people are confirmed to have been injured and are being cared for at the WellStar Kennestone Hospital, according to The Atlanta-Journal Constitution.

Cobb County police arrived at the scene at 6 a.m. on April 29 after receiving a call about an active shooter. As police searched for the gunman inside the facility after the area had been secured, the suspected gunman was found dead — most likely from a self-inflicted gun shot wound, according to Fox News.
Family members of those affected by this tragedy are being directed to a nearby skating arena for updates on the condition of their loved ones as it becomes available.
