The shootings began late in the afternoon in Samson. The shooter killed five people in one home and one each in two other homes.
The gunman also shot at a state trooper's car, striking the vehicle seven times and wounding the trooper with broken glass.
He then killed someone at a Samson supply store and another person at a service station, the safety department said.
Police pursued him to Reliable Metal Products just north of Geneva, about a dozen miles southeast of Samson, where he fired an estimated 30 rounds. One of the bullets hit Geneva Police Chief Frankie Lindsey, who was saved by his bullet proof vest, the safety department said.
The statement says the gunman then went in the plant and shot himself. His name was not released.
The gunman had worked at Reliable Metal, said state Rep. Warren Beck, a Republican whose district includes Geneva.

It would be interesting to have ICE investigate the Geneva/Samson area, do some snooping around to see who is hiring Illegal Aliens, and what if any impact this might had on the Main Street American Workers in the area...IE, have they lost jobs, seen their wages depressed.
The CNN headline said it was a 30 round burst. That is a lie. He did not have an automatic weapon.
Illegal aliens have depressed the economy and helped bust the mortgage banks because of deregulation. This allowed Bush to pay La RAZA millions to help Illegal Aliens obtain unqualified mortgages. They are responsible for about 35%-40% of the bust.
They and the ones that brought them have brought nothing but a financial plaque on America.
