Three shooters are involved in the Navy Yard shooting, a police spokeswoman said.
One of the shooters is “down,” police said, but two remain in a building on the grounds.
One of the shooters at large is dressed in fatigues. At least one has a long gun, police said.

“The President has been briefed several times about the unfolding situation at the Washington Navy Yard by Assistant to the President for Homeland Security and Counterterrorism Lisa Monaco and Deputy Chief of Staff Alyssa Mastromanaco....

O is a joke.
Imho, the facebook photo looks nothing like the ‘mug shot’ we’ve seen.
Speculation: Did the contractor who employed Alexis lose a contract with the Navy, perhaps causing Alexis to be laid off?
GW, pinging you to Deo’s checkist.
A friend said Alexis loved Buddhism.
“He loved to go to temple, go to meditate in Thai and English,” the friend said. “He could do both of them.”
Breitbart site stated that AP is reporting that suspect had TX concealed carry permit. Of course, that would not be valid in DC, but can't let anything interfere with the correct narrative.
Just curious, do you transcribe all the Alex Jones notes?
It seems everything is a conspiracy to you. Not saying this administration is honest, we all know they are not, yet you flood this thread with every conspiracy every touted.
Could it be the gunman is dead simply because whoever shot him was trying to save lives? Too simple a suggestion?
Aaron Alexis, 34, grew up in Brooklyn with his mother, Sarah, and father, Anthony Alexis, according to his aunt Helen Weeks.
“We haven’t seen him for years,” Weeks said of her nephew in a telephone interview. “I know he was in the military. He served abroad. I think he was doing some kind of computer work.”
I don't know, based on what I am reading it appears there are a lot of ‘truthers” on FreeRepublic with their tin foil hats on.....
I don't trust my government, but to think they are somehow behind this is a stretch for me....
“Aunt of alleged Navy Yard shooter Aaron Alexis believes he was doing some kind of computer work” and under 35, and I’m really supposed to believe this guy doesn’t have a Facebook page?
Go figure. Just drove by the mosque that he likely attended if he is a convert....no activity. Just a yellow cab sitting near building. All gates closed. I live very near the FW NAS too. Local news tonight will probably have some info on him. I will report back.
“Aaron Alexis, 34, a native of Brooklyn who lived until recently in Texas, according to law enforcement sources.
Police say it is unclear if Alexis acted alone. Authorities are still searching for another possible suspect: a black man in his 40s with gray sideburns, wearing an olive-drab military-style uniform....Alexis lived in Seattle and in Fort Worth, Texas, according to public records.”
Now 13 fatalities.
lol...
My first post was at about #600...
Gezzz, I hope this turns out to be a team of international terrorist. Otherwise you'll clearly be disappointed.
This was, on top of everything else, not just any workplace, but a military facility
LOL! Your government has illegal aliens working on our military basis...During wartime ...Where ya been? Get yourself updated man.
Hard to miss them isn’t it?! Makes my head spin reading them.
If only DC had had tougher gun control laws, this wouldn’t have happened.
If we keep this up we might surpass Benghazi!
I so agree with you.
