The Sikh Coalition, a civil rights group, tweeted about the shooting, saying it expects law enforcement to conduct a “thorough investigation.” 

While law enforcement is still investigating the motive behind Thursday night’s shooting, this FedEx facility was well-known for having many Sikh employees. As a result, we fully expect that law enforcement will conduct a thorough investigation. https://t.co/fUQQ9MkP8Z pic.twitter.com/AUwPD3E1hz
