NEW ALBANY, OH — Authorities have arrested the suspect involved in a deadly shooting in Ohio on Tuesday.
According to police, 28-year-old Bruce Reginald Foster III was captured after a lengthy manhunt on Wednesday morning, following a shooting at an Ohio warehouse that left two people dead and four others injured.
The New Albany Police Department responded to the KDC/One facility in New Albany, Ohio, around 10:30 p.m. Tuesday night, where they found six victims, one of whom was already deceased. Foster was identified as the suspect and authorities began an intensive search for him.
A handgun was recovered at the scene, police said.
Police noted approximately 150 people were safely evacuated from the warehouse after the incident.
Foster was located after police executed a search warrant at a residence in Columbus.
Police said Foster was located and arrested within 12 hours.
Foster resisted arrest, and “non-lethal force” was used to take him into custody, according to authorities.
Authorities confirmed that one of the injured victims later died in the hospital, bringing the death toll to two. The conditions of the four remaining hospitalized individuals remain unknown as of Thursday evening.
Foster, who worked at the KDC/One facility in New Albany—a plant specializing in beauty and personal care products—was reportedly employed at the company for some time before the incident. Police believe the shooting was targeted, but they have stated there was no altercation leading up to the violence.
Foster has been charged with aggravated murder, according to the Columbus Dispatch.
Presumption of Innocence: A presumption of innocence means that any defendant in a criminal trial is presumed to be innocent until they have been proven guilty beyond a reasonable doubt in a court of law. The defendant in this case is only accused of the charges set forth in the criminal complaint. They are innocent until proven guilty.
