Military authorities responded Tuesday to a report of gunshots at a building on the campus of the Naval Medical Center San Diego — where officials warned people inside “to run, hide or fight.”
The spokesman Mike Alvarez said three shoots were heard around 8 a.m. in Building 26, which houses offices and barracks for wounded sailors and Marines as well as a gym. "We’re not taking any chances and are executing procedures we’ve been trained for in this kind of situation," Alvarez said.
"A source inside the medical centre told Fox 5 News that the shots appear to have come from building 26 at the centre, which is also known as the old hospital", reports The Telegraph. Police are currently taking to the shooter.
According to the New York Post, San Diego High School, Garfield High School and Roosevelt Middle School have also been placed under lockdown as a precaution. Now all child care facilities at the centre were secured.
