JUST NOW ON THE NEWS @ 2:22 PM, EDT: FOUR MARINES KILLED!
From Reuters:
The photo that I'm seeing on CNN is showing at least 18 bullet holes in the doors of the Navy Reserve Recruiting Station, which is in a strip mall.
There is also an unconfirmed report of a man driving a black BMW firing on the other location.
The two sites fired upon are 7.5 miles apart.
CNN's ongoing coverage is HERE.
Addendum 1: Chattanooga Police are Tweeting out that the active shooter situation is resolved. News conference coming in a few minutes.
Addendum 2: According to reports on CNN, the shooter is dead. Buildings still remain on lock down, however.
Addendum 3: Four Marines injured [UPDATE: MARINES KILLED]. Chattanooga City Police officer wounded, but not seriously.
Addendum 4: Lock downs have ended. There are reports that the shooter and/or the police fired 100 rounds and that there was a shootout between the shooter and the police - with the end coming with two shots at the shooter after he fled into the woods of the big park in that part of Chattanooga.
Police sources are saying that the shooter's name was Muhammad Youssef Abdulazeez.
