WASHINGTON, D.C. — Multiple news sources are reporting that a man accused of shooting two officers at the Pentagon complex on Thursday is from Hollister.
Law enforcement sources identified the suspect as John Patrick Bedell, 36.
KNX Radio, which is based in Los Angeles, originally reported that Bedell is from Hollister.
The Washington Post then reported that when a call was made to a home in Hollister, a man identified himself as John Bedell and said he had a 36-year-old son in the Washington D.C. area named John Patrick Bedell before hanging up.
Two officers suffered grazing wounds when a gunman drew a weapon from his pocket and opened fire at the teeming subway entrance to the Pentagon complex at about 6:40 p.m. EST Thursday.
The officers wounds were not life-threatening and they were being treated at a hospital, said Richard Keevill, chief of Pentagon police.
“He just reached in his pocket, pulled out a gun and started shooting,” Keevill said. “He walked up very cool. He had no real emotion on his face.” The Pentagon officers returned fire with semiautomatic weapons. Of the suspect, the chief said, “His injury is pretty critical.”
The assault at the very threshold of the Pentagon - the U.S. capital’s ground zero on Sept. 11, 2001 - came four months after a deadly attack on the Army’s Fort Hood, Texas, base allegedly by a U.S. Army psychiatrist with radical Islamic leanings. In the immediate aftermath Thursday, investigators did not think terrorism was involved but were not ruling that out and did not discuss possible motives.
