The historic Washington Navy Yard — the U.S. Navy’s oldest shore installation—was locked down Monday following an apparent gun rampage that left at least 12 people, including one shooter, dead.
The motive for the shootings remains unknown, Washington Police Chief Cathy Lanier said, as she announced the mounting toll. She added that police are still looking for two additional suspects.
“4 killed and 8 injured. One shooter down,” Ed Buclatin, a Navy spokesman, tweeted earlier in the day. “Reports of at least TWO shooters involved….Shooter is cornered in Bldg 197.” Air-traffic control officials at the capital’s Reagan National Airport, just across the Potomac River from the Navy Yard, briefly grounded flights following the shootings.
“An active shooter was reported inside the Naval Sea Systems Command Headquarters building (Bldg. 197) on the Washington Navy Yard at 8:20 a.m. (Eastern Time),” the Navy said in its initial statement. “Emergency personnel remain on scene and a ‘shelter in place’ order has been issued for Navy Yard personnel.” The Navy Yard is a walled compound with restricted access and tight security. There was no word on how the shooters may have gained entry with weapons.
