A gunman killed eight people and then himself at a FedEx facility in Indianapolis late Thursday night, authorities said.

Officers responded just after 11 p.m. to reports of shots fired. When officers arrived at the scene they came in contact with an active shooter. The gunman then apparently killed himself.

“The (gunman) came into the parking lot, and I believe he exited his vehicle and quickly began shooting. … The first shooting occurred in the parking lot, and then he went inside and did not get very far (inside),” Indianapolis police Deputy Chief Craig McCartt said in a statement.

McCartt said police believe the gunman used a rifle.

Five people were hospitalized after the shooting, one with critical injuries, police said.

McCartt said the five people taken to hospitals are all believed to be in stable condition.

Gunman has not been positively identified yet, police say.

McCartt said early Friday that officers still knew “very little.” The FBI is now assisting with the investigation.

Oregon’s Menstrual Dignity Act has layers of perversion. In July of last year, democratic Governor Kate Brown signed the “Menstrual Dignity Act” which requires schools k-12 to carry and provide free sanitary products to students with instructions on how they are supposed to be used. The installs have begun, according to a video posted be @libsoftiktok.

The Portland school district stated, “starting next year (2022-2022), products will be available in all restrooms (male, female and all-gender) in every PPS building where education occurs.”

Fox News reports that “Menstrual Dignity for Students” tool kits containing instructions and tips for “menstruation-positive” language for families.

Part of the kit reads: “Importantly, [the Menstrual Dignity Act] affirms the right to menstrual dignity for transgender, intersex, nonbinary, and two spirit students by addressing the challenges that some students have managing menstruation while minimizing negative attention that could put them at risk of harm and navigating experiences of gender dysphoria during menstruation.”
