Police in Logan Township, New Jersey are responding to an active shooter situation at a UPS facility, the company said Monday.

A spokesman for UPS said in a statement NBC News they are "working with law enforcement as they respond to an active shooter situation at one of the company's supply chain processing facilities ... We cannot provide information about the identity of people involved at this time."

The shooting happened at around 9 a.m. ET at one of the company's supply chain processing facilities in Gloucester County, about 25 south of Philadelphia. It remains unclear if anyone has been injured in the shooting.
