UPDATE: Four Dead, Seven Injured In NAS Pensacola Shooting
December 6, 2019
Four people are dead after an active shooter at NAS Pensacola just before 7 a.m. Friday.
The shooter and two other victims passed away at the scene of the shooting; one later died at the hospital. Gov. Ron DeSantis and Congressman Matt Gaetz have confirmed the shooter was a Saudi national.
There were seven additional victims being treated at Baptist Hospital, including two deputies. One deputy was shot in the knee and was in surgery; the second deputy was shot in the arm. Both are expected to recover, according to Sheriff David Morgan.
Morgan confirmed that Escambia County deputies “did negate the threat”, shooting and killing the gunman at the scene.
The gunman used a handgun, Morgan said.
The names of the victims will not be released until notification of next of kin is made.
NAS Commander Tim Kinsella said the shooting occurred in a classroom building and played out over two floors of the building. The shooting occurred in Building 633.
Kinsella would not speculate if the incident might be terrorism.
“I don’t even want to speculate on that,” Kinsella said.
“This is a tragic day for Pensacola,” Mayor Grover Robinson said. “Our hearts and prayers (are with) all those that serve us everyday,” Mayor Grover Robinson said. “This is a resilient community. We will overcome this.”
The public should avoid the entire area around the base; the base is locked down and closed until further notice.
There was a World War II Remembrance ceremony planned for 10 a.m. today at the National Naval Aviation Museum. The Tate High School Vocal Jazz and Wind Ensemble were scheduled to perform. NorthEscambia.com has confirmed that the Tate High School students were not yet on base.
