Nobody worry, the “Federal Agent” is here to help!
WMAL: 6 confirmed dead by US Navy spokesman, 12:09pm.
No Problem. WJLA says 12 people shot with 8 dead and 4 injured. But a hospital woman at Washington Hospital Center said their hospital had three victims and more were expected. Schools around the area on lock down. Reagan National Airport was on lock down too, but it has been lifted. One victim at the hospital was shot in the head, another in the legs, and third person in shoulder. But they were responsive. Two women and one man. The shooting victims were shot by rapid gunfire. The victims were lucid and able to talk and they say they will make it. Reporter at the scene saw four people airlifted from the building.

She was a black woman. I think she said she was at the cafeteria that was being shot at. She said she was told by security to shelter in house and she decided, if I can paraphrase, "to hell with that. I'm outa here."
Moreover, the media is pretty horrendous and often gets the initial reports wrong.
Blame it on Obamacare.
Who is the clown doing presser? The PC DC police?
What nonsense.
