Police in Alabama say a worker killed two people and wounded two more at a fire hydrant factory before killing himself.
Albertsville Police Chief Jamie Smith says the suspect apparently killed himself in a car found in Guntersville, about 15 miles from the factory.
Gunfire broke out at about 2:30 a.m. Tuesday at a Mueller Co. plant in Albertville.
Smith says it's not immediately known what prompted the shooting.
The factory has more than 400 workers, giving the town its nickname of ``Fire Hydrant Capital of the World.''
A worker at the factor said the shooting happened in a part of the plant where hydrants and pipes are painted.
