THE BATTALION
Friday, Decembtf
1 dead, 6 inj ured in
Indiana factory shootin
Friday, Decen
Dispute led gunman to carry out shootings, kills
GOSHEN, Ind. (AP) — A
man returned to the factory
where he worked after a dispute
and opened fire Thursday,
killing a co-worker and wound
ing six others, authorities said.
A SWAT team later found the
gunman dead inside the simulat
ed-wood factory with an appar
ently self-inflicted gunshot
wound. A shotgun was under his
body.
“All I’m aware of is there
was a dispute, and he left the
property and came back,” Police
Chief Terry Schollian said.
The gunman had apparently
just been fired or was about to
be fired from the Nu-Wood
Decorative Millwork, police
said.
Six people were wounded,
the chief said. One victim was
hospitalized in critical condition
and another in serious condition.
Two were in fair condition, and
the others were treated and
released.
The gunman was identified
by the mayor as Robert
Wissman. 36, of Goshen. He
lived about two miles from the
plant.
As many as 35 were inside
the plant at the time of the
shootings, but most escaped
unharmed, Schollian said.
Earlier, the mayor and hospital
administrators said they feared
30 to 35 people had been shot.
One employee called police
from inside the factory to advise
what route the SWAT team
should use to enter the building,
the chief said.
Tammy Funderburk of nearby
New Paris said she spoke briefly
by cell phone with her 18-year-
old son, who worked at the fac
tory and escaped uninjured.
“He saw the gunman coming
and he had a big rifle,”
Funderburk said. “He saw the
gunman shooting people and he
ran out the back door as fast as
he could.”
The shooting jolted this
northern Indiana community of
29,000 about 100 miles east of
Chicago. An elementary school
kept its pupils inside and
Goshen College, a small school
run by Mennonites, told stu
dents and faculty to stay
indoors.
Alerted by a 911 call from
another business nearby, police
and SWAT teams surrounded the
factory and cordoned off the
industrial park. Twelve nearby
plants were evacuated.
“The place is smothered in
cops,” Chris Barouska, a parts
manager at a neighboring
IngersoII-Rand factory, said as
authorities scrambled to find the
gunman.
By late afternoon, people
were leaving the building with
their hands on their heads and
rescue crews removed people on
stretchers.
Nu-Wood makes a
polyurethane-based product that
resembles white pine and is used
as decorative trimming by
homebuilders and remodelers.
The company its name from GR
Plastics Inc. earlier this year and
leases 40,000 square feet at the
Goshen building.
“It’s not like an assembly line
situation,” said Herb Siaj
Nu-Wood manufacturer's
sentalive who worksom
home in Akron,
“Everyone knows each
and everyone interaiia
each other.”
