Geneva Mayor Geneva Mayor Wynnton Melton told MSNBC-TV that 10 people were dead, including the gunman.

 

Melton said with police in pursuit, the gunman burst into the Reliable Products company outside of Geneva but turned the gun on himself. Some 400 people were working in the business at the time, Melton said.

 

 

Soleta Darden witnessed the shootout, the Dothan Eagle reported.

 

"I heard five shots to my right, and then I looked up and saw a maroon Eclipse speed off from the scene, then I saw deputies and troopers in pursuit after him,” Darden said. "I was just scared, crazy scared. I thought, ‘What the crap is going on."

 

Geneva is near the Florida border in southeast Alabama. It has a population about 4,400, and neighboring Samson about 2,000.

 

Geneva County Coroner Max Motley told the Dothan Eagle that he was called to the Big Little Store on West Main Street in Samson, where he found the body of a woman. Other victims, he told the newspaper, are at a home off of Highway 52.

 

WTVY TV reported that the gunman did not injure anyone at Reliable Products, according to witnesses. The station got a call from a worker at the business as they crouched in a corner during the ordeal.

A message left by The Associated Press with the FBI was not immediately returned.

 

Reliable Products makes grills and vents for heating and AC systems, mainly for hotels. A call to a person who answered the phone at the plant said no one could talk about the shooting.

 

The towns of Geneva and Samson are about 11 miles apart, and roughly 30 miles south of Fort Rucker.
