Multiple injured in shooting at Pearl Harbor

AT LEAST three people were injured, two of them critically, when a gunman opened fire at the Pearl Harbor Naval Shipyard in Hawaii before taking his own life, local news reports said Wednesday.

A spokesman for the US base would only say that security forces had responded to reports of a shooting at around 2:30 pm local time and that the base was on lockdown for

several hours.

One witness told local media he was sitting at his computer when he heard shots fired and rushed to the window where he saw three victims on the ground.

The witness, who did not want to be identified, said he then saw the gunman who was wearing what appeared to be a navy or sailor’s uniform shoot himself in the head.

Hawaii News Now said civilians were among the gunshot victims.
