Damn
Hope its not serious. I spent time at William Beaumont after Iraq. Its problem is its separated from the main base so MPs will have a slower response, its also has a VA hospital attached so its very open to the public.
CNN (consider the source)is saying it’s actually at the VA Hospital in El Paso.

Damn!
I heard Medical Center at Fort Bliss on Breaking News blip at FoxNews...about 20 min ago, no info and shooting was taking place per Bret Baer.
See #6...maybe VA hospital attached to Bliss.
There are new reports out that there is shooter at a Fort Bliss Va clinic. On Tuesday, KFOR out of Oklahoma City shared that the news was just coming out that there is an active shooter at the El Paso VA Healthcare System in El Paso, Texas. The area is on lock down at this time. They did share that they would be giving out more information as soon as it was available, but nothing else has been released yet.
K Fox TV did share a bit of information about what was going on at this time. The gates have been closed to the area. This clinic is located next to the William Beaumont Army Medical Center. The El Paso police department is on the scene at this time and assisting with the active shooter. They have not shared if anyone has been injured or if there is just one shooter. More information will continue to come out. At this time, it is in the very early stages and is still ongoing.
There is very little information available at this time. This is not the first shooting in Ft. Bliss. Back in 2010, Retired Army Sgt. Steven Kropf went into the base and shot one woman killing her and injured another. After this, he went to his car and sat there where he was killed by police on the scene. The victims were actually taken to the William Beaumont Army Medical Center which is next to where the shooter is at today.
Prayers up.
Thanks for the additional information.
Active duty ping.
Fox just said a search for shooter is going on in El Paso, and no information on victims yet.
appears to be lone shooter ... but not much info available.
Is it a “Youth”?
