Final Report On The Ft. Hood Shooter as of April 2, 2014 10:25 PM
Soldier Opens Fire At Fort Hood; 4 Dead Including Shooter, 16 Injured
Prayers for all involved, both the soldier who felt driven to it and his victims.
[CBS-DFW] A soldier opened fire Wednesday on fellow service members at the Fort Hood military base, killing three people and wounding 16 before committing suicide at the same post where more than a dozen people were slain in a 2009 attack, authorities said.

The shooter, who served in Iraq in 2011, had been undergoing an assessment to determine whether he had post-traumatic stress disorder, according to Lt. Gen. Mark A. Milley, the senior officer on the base. He was also undergoing psychiatric treatment for depression.

There was no indication the attack was related to terrorism, Milley said.

A Texas congressman said the shooting happened at a medical center. Rep. Michael McCaul, chairman of the House Homeland Security Committee, also identified the suspect as Ivan Lopez.

The injured were taken to Darnall Army Community Hospital at Fort Hood and other local hospitals. Dr. Glen Couchman, chief medical officer at Scott and White Hospital in Temple, said the first four people admitted there had gunshots to chest, abdomen, neck and extremities and that their conditions range from stable to "quite critical." At last check, nine patients had been admitted to Scott and White.
If any additional information is reported during the day, please post in the comment thread, though it is no longer a War on Terror story.
