A woman was killed and the suspect also is dead in a shooting Monday at a warehouse in Groveport, Ohio, a suburb of Columbus (Groveport Police Department)

GROVEPORT, Ohio — A man shot and killed a woman at a warehouse Monday, then died after he climbed a nearby utility pole and was electrocuted, police say.

A news release from the Franklin County Sheriff’s Office says deputies received multiple calls from an SK Foods warehouse on Toy Road just before 5:30 a.m. with reports of shots fired. Authorities say a domestic disturbance led to the shooting in the building, which claimed the life of a woman whose identity has not been released.

WCMH Channel 4 reports the woman was shot multiple times in a locker room area of the building. She was taken to a hospital but died of her wounds.

After the shooting, the male suspect left the building and climbed a nearby utility pole. He died when he touched the power lines, reports say.

WCMH reports both the victim and the suspect were temp workers at the warehouse.

No other workers were wounded and there are no other suspects in the shooting, police say.
