Amarjeet Kaur Johal, a mother, grandmother and member of Indianapolis' Sikh community, was one of eight people killed by a gunman at the FedEx Ground Plainfields Operation Center on Thursday night, a family member told IndyStar.
"I am heartbroken to confirm that my nanjii (maternal grandmother), Amarjeet Kaur Johal, is among those killed in the senseless shooting at the FedEx facility in Indianapolis," her grandson said in a Twitter message.
He said his family would not be interviewed at the time, but shared that they are undergoing trauma after the incident.
"We are still working to identify others who were injured and killed on Thursday night," the grandson wrote. "I have several family members who work at the particular facility and are traumatized. My nani, my family and our families should not feel unsafe at work, at their place of worship, or anywhere. Enough is enough — our community has been through enough trauma."
