The officer confirmed that two people were killed and another two were injured in the shooting.

Smith added that the worker began firing "for an unknown reason."

Investigators are currently working to determine the identity and location of the shooter.

The gunman allegedly fled the scene in a vehicle, while the two injured workers were rushed to hospital. Their conditions were not immediately known.

It is unclear if there are anymore fatalities or injuries at this time.

The building employs just under 500 people, however it is unclear how many people were in the facility when the incident took place.

The building manufactures millions of fire hydrants and is one of the area's largest employers.

A family member told AL.com that employees were told not to report to the plant until further notice.
