Authorities confirmed that the suspect in the shooting at an Ohio warehouse that killed one person and wounded five was arrested Wednesday morning.  The suspect, Bruce Reginald Foster III, was arrested at a home in nearby Columbus on Wednesday morning. Foster was turned over to police in New Albany (about 15 miles northeast of downtown Columbus) where the shooting took place Tuesday night around 10:30 p.m. at the KDC/One cosmetics facility, where authorities say the suspect worked. (per CNN).

Chief Deputy U.S. Marshal Dan Deville said:  “Normally what we prefer to do is have people come out and surrender to us. He refused to come out. Our guys did have to make entry.”

New Albany Police Chief Greg Jones said during a Wednesday morning press conference the motive for the mass shooting was unknown, and there were no reports of any kind of confrontation or dispute that would have prompted the shooting.  Foster had been at work “for some time” before the shooting, which happened about 10:30 p.m., Jones said.

Police added that those injured had been taken to a local hospital, and family members of those involved were still being notified.  Jones said 150 workers were evacuated from the warehouse after the shooting, many of whom did not know what had happened until authorities ushered them into a neighboring, secure building.
