INDIANAPOLIS — The suspect in the deadly mass shooting at a FedEx facility in Indianapolis as Brandon Scott Hole, 19, according to IMPD.
He was a former employee of the FedEx facility in Indianapolis, FedEx said.
"We can confirm that the perpetrator was a former employee at the facility," a statement from FedEx read.
IMPD released the driver's license picture of Brandon Scott Hole:
He was last employed at the facility in 2020, according to IMPD.
Detectives are sourcing his social media and electronics to help determine the motive.
According to a 2020 IMPD incident report, a "pump-action shotgun" was seized from him. The gun was never returned to him.
“In March 2020, the suspect’s mother contacted law enforcement to report he might try to commit 'suicide by cop,' FBI Indianapolis Special Agent in Charge Paul Keenan said in a statement. "The suspect was placed on an immediate detention mental health temporary hold by the Indianapolis Metropolitan Police Department. A shotgun was seized at his residence. Based on items observed in the suspect’s bedroom at that time, he was interviewed by the FBI in April 2020. No Racially Motivated Violent Extremism (RMVE) ideology was identified during the course of the assessment and no criminal violation was found. The shotgun was not returned to the suspect.”
