A woman is dead and two people are in critical condition after a shooting at an automotive part production plant in Cookeville, Tennessee, this morning, the Putnam County Sheriff's Office said.

The scene at the Ficosa plant has since been secured and there is no danger to the public, the Cookeville Police Department said.
