A report of an ongoing incident at Fort Hood is being reported with the base ordered to shelter in place and as many as several people reportedly wounded and one death. The shooter is still at at large according to radio reports. Stay tuned.
UPDATE: Two reported possible shooters; one captured dead, the other still at large.
Several days ago threats were made against Fort Hood. FBI is investigating:
The FBI is searching for a recent Army recruit believed to be planning a “Fort Hood-inspired jihad against U.S. soldiers,” FoxNews.com has learned.
The alert, whose legitimacy was confirmed by military and law enforcement officials, stated that a man identified as Booker had told friends of his “intention to commit jihad.” Booker, who is also known as Muhammad Abdullah Hassan, was recruited by the U.S. Army in Kansas City, Mo., in February 2014 and was scheduled to report for basic training on April 7. But he was discharged last week, apparently after law enforcement authorities learned of his alleged plan.
Both the FBI and the 902d Military Intelligence Group at Fort Leavenworth are involved in the hunt.
You can blame the Department of the Army for this one — and the last — for banning the carry of firearms except ” … only to qualified personnel when there is a reasonable expectation that life or Department of the Army (DA) assets will be jeopardized…”
The Army desk jockeys are insane.
34-year-old Fort Hood soldier Ivan Lopez was the shooter.
