Early reports are of one officer down, with no word on his condition.
CNN reports that one witness said, “She saw a man fire shots at a building that houses military recruiting offices.” The witness said she was in a nearby restaurant when “She heard loud noises” and looked through the restaurant’s front window to the see the man allegedly shooting at the Navy center.
A second witness who works at a nearby hair salon confirmed seeing the attack on the Navy center as well.
Shortly after news of the attack broke, Chattanooga Mayor Andy Berke tweeted: “Horrific incident in our community. We will release details as they are confirmed. Prayers to all those affected.”
ABC News reports that no suspects have been apprehended, and there is a possibility that a second attack took place in which a shooter opened fire on law enforcement officers from inside his car.
UPDATE 1:45 pm EST:
WSMV is reporting that the Tennessee Governor’s “residence in Nashville has been placed on lockdown in response” to the shootings in Chattanooga “that injured 4 Marines and one police officer.” Extra security has been added to “the War Memorial and the Tennessee Capitol complex” as well.
