13 Dead In Washington Navy Yard Shootings Including Gunman
[BREITBART] A former Navy man launched an attack Monday morning inside a building at the Washington Navy Yard, spraying gunfire on office workers in the cafeteria and in the hallway at the heavily secured installation, authorities said. Thirteen people were killed, including the gunman.Authorities said they were looking for a second possible attacker who may have been disguised in a military-style uniform. Investigators said they had not established a motive for the shooting rampage, which unfolded in the heart of the nation's capital, less than four miles from the White House. As for whether it may have been a terrorist attack, Mayor Vincent Gray said: "We don't have any reason to think that at this stage." But he said the possibility had not been ruled out. President Barack Obama Why can't I just eat my waffle?... lamented yet another mass shooting in the U.S. that he said took the lives of American patriots. He promised to make sure "whoever carried out this cowardly act is held responsible." It was the deadliest shooting at a U.S.-based military installation since Maj. Nidal Hasan killed 13 people and maimed 30 others in 2009 at Fort Hood in Texas. He was convicted last month and sentenced to death. Posted by: Fred 2013-09-17 |
