ALAMOGORDO, N.M. (AP) — A shooting at a U.S. Air Force base in New Mexico on Tuesday left one person dead and another wounded, according to military officials.

The Holloman Air Force Base near Alamogordo, in southern New Mexico, was put on lockdown at about 5:30 p.m. because of reports of an active shooter near the base convenience store, according to a statement released by the 49th Wing.

The person wounded has been taken for medical treatment, according to the statement. Security officials confirmed the base is safe and the lockdown was lifted.

“Emergency personnel are responding to the situation and there is no threat at this time,” the statement said.

The base convenience store was closed until further notice, the base said in a post on Facebook.

Or a love triangle. Maybe among a tranny fighting a muzzie over someone. Possibly involving a goat. Who is also trans.

People at the site claim it was a domestic dispute. A woman shot at her husband with the kids in the car, wounded him, and then went and committed suicide. That’s just stuff posting stuff on the internet so God knows if it’s true

Personally, I think women were nicer to be around back in the old days, when they were nice, not all covered in tattoos, and mean and violent.

“Suspect PFC Allahu “Jihad” Akbar was taken into custody for the shooting of fellow airman Cpt. Brian Jones. There is no known motive for the shooting at this point in the investigation. Investigators are considering stress and workplace discrimination” - Alamogordo Police Investigators. (/s)

Yeah, they seemed so, because of their generally (and deceptively) gentle manner, the way they could hide an iron fist in a velvet glove.

Don't get me wrong, I'm crazy about females, have been since as far back as I can remember. I even stayed in a relationship with one for 50 years, married, kids, grandkids. But I've come to learn that you underestimate them at your peril.

Maybe dialing the “strong and independent women” thing back a couple of clicks would have been helpful.

Reporting that a woman committed suicide after attempting to serve her husband with divorce papers and then shooting him would have been more journalistically worthwhile than informing us that Holloman Air Force base is roughly 93 square miles or 240 square kilometers in metric units.

But that would be too much to expect from the AP.

“strong and independent women”

Is that the polite way of saying "homicidally deranged psychotic b!tch"?

For some reason, I am reminded of the late, lamented Phil Hartman.

It’s an isolated incident.

Definitely NOT activated cells.
