Authorities have identified the suspect in a mass shooting at an Indianapolis FedEx facility as 19 year old Brandon Scott Hole of Indiana.

Two law enforcement officials briefed on the matter provided the identity to The Associated Press on Friday.

The officials say investigators are searching a home in Indianapolis associated with Hole and have seized evidence, including desktop computers and other electronic media.

The officials could not discuss the matter publicly and spoke to the AP on condition of anonymity.

Police say the gunman who stormed a FedEx facility near the Indianapolis airport took his own life shortly before officers entered the building.

The shooting left eight people dead and several wounded.

Deputy Chief Craig McCartt of the Indianapolis police says the gunman started randomly shooting at people in the parking lot, then went into the building.

It's the latest in a recent string of recent mass shootings across the United States.
