One person is dead and several others are wounded after a shooting at a cosmetic manufacturing plant in Ohio, according to local police.

The city of New Albany, Ohio, posted on its website that police responded to an “active shooter situation” at the KDC/One manufacturing plant just before 11 p.m. on Tuesday. 

The facility produces “value-added solutions to many of the world’s leading brands in the beauty, personal care, and home care categories,” according to the plant’s website.

New Albany Police Chief Greg Jones said he cannot say if the suspect was an employee at the plant or not, and that it appears to have been a “targeted attack” without a motive, at the moment.

Jones also said a firearm was recovered from the scene.

An update posted to the city website at around 2:30 a.m. said officers were finishing evacuating employees from the building. Jones said approximately 150 people were evacuated to a neighboring building.

The investigation remains in its beginning stages, and authorities ask for anyone with information on the suspect or the incident to call them at 614-855-1234.
