WASHINGTON (CBSDC/AP) — At least two people have been shot and an active shooter is on the grounds of the Washington Navy Yard in Southeast D.C.

The U.S. Navy says three shots were fired at 8:20 a.m. Monday at Naval Sea Systems Command Headquarters building and D.C. police say at least two people have been shot.

The Navy Yard is on lockdown and a “shelter in place” order has been issued, the Navy says. About 3,000 people work in the building, the Navy says.

The 11th Street Bridge is closed in both directions. M Street is closed near New Jersey Avenue near 11th Street.

The New Jersey Avenue entrance at the Navy Yard-Ballpark Metro station is closed.

Naval Sea Systems Command is the largest of the Navy’s five system commands and accounts for a quarter of the Navy’s entire budget.

It builds, buys and maintains the Navy’s ships and submarines and their combat systems.

Police from multiple local and federal agencies were responding along with SWAT crews.

I'm actually gonna say this is "workplace violence". Not a terrorist action like Fort Hood. Only 3 shots? Ya...someone's disgruntled.

Wonder if everybody did the Run-Hide-Fight per DHS?

If Sandy Hook was any indication about how reliable our "developing news" is, I'd have to agree.

If A, then workplace violence.
If C, then domestic terrorism.

And will it be lunch time or after work before the usual anti-gun folk start spewing we need more gun laws?

NBC had an article ready yesterday.

The question I need answered is where the hell is Gibbs (and Ziva)?

seal gone mad?

Doesn't sound like it, from the great reporting they are saying there are shots to the legs, arms, chest, really all over. Don't see a trained SEAL doing that.

Russia is already mocking us, saying this an example of American Exceptionalism.
