One person was killed Wednesday after a shooting at an Amazon delivery station parking lot in Chandler, Ariz., near Phoenix. According to news reports, one man not affiliated with Amazon showed up with a gun and shot an Amazon contractor. Another man, also an Amazon contractor, fired back at the original shooter, who died at the scene, according to police.
Amazon suspended operations for the day and sent workers home with pay. “We’re deeply saddened by this act of violence in our parking lot,” Amazon spokesperson Richard Rocha said in a statement. “We’re working closely with law enforcement as they investigate and are focused on supporting our team during this difficult time.”
