One suspected gunman is confirmed dead after a shooting at a naval air station in Pensacola, Florida, on Friday morning.
Multiple people were shot, and at least one person is dead. “Unknown number of injured people being transferred to local hospitals,” the U.S. Navy tweeted.
The shooting started at around 6:30 a.m. local time, and the Naval Base was placed on lockdown. By 7:48, Escambia County Sheriff’s Office confirmed that the shooter was dead, and the active shooter situation was over.
Friday morning’s shooting came just days after an American sailor opened fire on Hawaii’s historic Pearl Harbor Shipyard and killed two people before turning the gun on himself.
