One man was killed and four other people were wounded in a shooting inside a gym in Washington’s Logan Circle neighborhood on Thursday, Nov. 12, Fox 5 DC reported.
The suspect then barricaded himself in a nearby apartment, fired at officers and died, Fox 5 DC reported, citing a city councilmember. A SWAT team responded to the barricade.
The shooting was first reported at about 8 a.m. near 15th and P streets, WTTG reported. Early reports differed on the number of victims. The Associated Press quoted police Officer Nathan Clarke as saying four people were shot at multiple locations, with exact locations not yet known. Fox 5 DC initially reported at least four, then five, wounded.
A shelter-in-place order was issued for Logan Circle and Dupont Circle, CNN reported. Logan Circle is about 1 mile north of the White House.
Another Fox 5 DC headline said an official indicated a building manager was targeted. Aurax News could not verify that detail. The sources reviewed did not identify the victims or the suspect, give a motive or say how the wounded were doing.
