A veteran driver was among four people who died in a shooting at a UPS San Francisco shipping warehouse Wednesday morning.

San Francisco Police say a uniformed UPS worker fatally shot three coworkers — including Mike Lefiti, who had driven for UPS for more than 16 years, according to family members — before using the gun to kill himself. Two others were wounded by gunfire, police said. The company confirmed that all of the victims and the shooter were employees.
