The main gate at Holloman Air Force Base in New Mexico has reportedly been closed after multiple suspects attempted to force their way through it on Wednesday evening.

In a news release sent to local station KTSM about 11:00 p.m. on Wednesday (1a.m. ET on Thursday), the air force base said "multiple suspects crashed their vehicle" while attempting to storm the gate, which has reportedly been closed until further notice.

"Earlier this evening, multiple suspects crashed their vehicle while attempting to force their way through the gate. The capabilities of our personnel and resources ensured there is no further threat to the safety and security of Team Holloman," the base said in a statement.

The base, which was established in 1942, is located around six miles from the small city Alamogordo in New Mexico, which is situated in the Chihuahuan Desert and bordered by the Sacramento Mountains.

Were they vaporized? Oh, probably not as that would not be ok unless shown they were conservatives.

[LIConFem]

Team Holloman?

It's good to get all those details crammed into one new story.

What a mealy-mouthed 21st century statement...

"The capabilities of our personnel and resources ensured there is no further threat to the safety and security of Team Holloman,"

Why can't they write in plain English?

"Their car is a smoldering hunk of rubble and there's red mist all over the pavement. We did find a fingernail."

Jihadists checking for a weak spot.

Dry run.

[G Larry]

Betting this is one small piece of a larger orchestrated effort across the country.

[bgill]

Oh, those crazy new arrivals from Afghanistan.

[nuconvert]

They get paid by the word

Jihadists checking for a weak spot.

Drunken airmen, not paying attention to the AP's telling them to stop hit a barrier, more likely.

[mewzilla]

Or FBI.

[Tax-chick]

I got the impression that it was “multiple suspects” in one car, so I think you may be right.

Jihadists checking for a weak spot.

Their data list will soon overload the laptop. Weakness in America?

[Reno89519]

Okay, the santitized ‘multiple suspects’ could be anything from drunks to terrorists. How about some detail?

[MercyFlush]

Muslims?

[V_TWIN]

Well that didn’t take long

More often as not it's a local carjacker fleeing LLE. Last time they tried that at Luke AFB, Security Forces (the 2021 equivalent of the 60's vintage term "AP") filled them full of lead before they had a chance to crash the barrier wall.

As we know very few people on any military base have weapons.

Having said that these people should have assumed room temperature for attempting this

[RummyChick]

this is probably unrelated to the bomber in DC

the idiot threw money out of his vehicle, told people to call 911 because he has a bomb.and said he wouldnt hurt anyone...and people started picking up the money
