The attack apparently happened at the Soldier Readiness Center.

Army personnel say they are not certain whether the victims are civilians or military personnel.

The Fort Hood public affairs spokesman said the Army is setting up a special operations center to handle the response.

The official base Web site has posted a message that it is on lock down and in an emergency situation. It also urged people to stay indoors.

Nine schools on the base -- seven elementary and two middle -- are included in the lock down.

"3 shooters, 1 dead, 1 in custody, 1 at large...7 dead and 20 injured" what i've heard so far

Fuck top. The shooters were soldiers as well and now they're saying that there are 12 casualties. They did it with HANDGUNS. Fuck.

I assume it was illegal to conceal carry there? It was where I was stationed, I'm not sure if that's a base rule or a military wide rule. Still proves that if more people carried shit like this wouldn't get as bad as it did. With that many people around, I'm sure one would carry if he/she could and they would have ended it quick.

The main shooter was a medical doctor. He was in the study
of traumatic stress. He wasn't supposed to be carrying. Rest
assured, they will use this as a reason to start banning all
firearms. If a medical doctor of psychiatry can snap...
