One of the hostages is the man&#8217;s ex-girlfriend.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The incident began at about 9 a.m. ET on Monday when officers were called to reports of an &#8220;active shooter&#8221; at the facility, which is located on Birdcreek Road in Logan Township, which is part of Gloucester County.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>A source told NBC that a man entered the building and fired shots into the ceiling before taking his ex-girlfriend and a second woman hostage. No one was injured in the shooting but the situation was ongoing at 11 a.m. ET.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>A large number of emergency services have been called to the scene, including SWAT and heavily-armed police officers. Video from the scene showed officers taking cover behind their vehicles.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>A robocall went out to workers, telling them to stay away.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>&#8220;UPS is working with law enforcement as they respond to an active shooter situation,&#8221; a UPS spokesperson said in a brief statement. &#8220;We cannot provide information about the identity of people involved at this time.&#8221;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>As a result of the incident, Logan Township Schools are on a modified lockdown. &#8220;All staff and students are SAFE!&#8221;, the school district said in a notice to parents.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><em>This is a breaking news alert.
