The shooting took place at the East Lamar Carrier Annex post office in Memphis in the state of Tennessee on Tuesday night Norwegian time.
Both the victims and the perpetrator were employees of the postal service, the USPS stated at a press conference afterwards. There, the FBI also confirmed the shooting and the course of events.
The case is under investigation. Some motive was unknown at the time.
In the 1980s and 1990s, there were a number of murders committed by postal workers in the United States. The phenomenon was described as “going postal” and the phrase has since appeared in literature, television series and computer games.
