GOSHEN, Indiana (CNN) -- Police are searching for a gunman who opened fire Thursday afternoon at an industrial park in northern Indiana, wounding dozens.
A police dispatcher contacted by CNN described the shooting spree as a "mass shooting" but had no details.
Sheriff's Capt. Julie Dijkstra told The Associated Press a former employee at the Nu-Wood simulated wood factory was believed to be responsible. The gunman may still be in the building, she said.
Mayor Allan Kauffman said he heard as many as 35 people had been shot, but he was not able to confirm that.
"At last word, the scene was still unsecure," Kauffman said, noting the shooter may still be inside.
The dispatcher said police were alerted to the shooting at Nu-Wood Decorative Millwork, a vinyl siding factory, at 2:31 p.m. She also said there were no fatalities immediately reported.
Local television aerial pictures of the scene showed ambulances lined up in a parking lot at the industrial park.
Kauffman said the industrial park houses several manufacturing plants and employs thousands of people.
Goshen is a town of about 29,000 people 100 miles west of Chicago.
