indication at this stage that there was another shooter even though we haven t completely ruled that out. that was the person as you will recall had been identified as wearing an olive drab uniform that someone portrayed as being around 50 years of age, around 5 10 with graying side burns. we have not identified that person nor do we have a lot of corroborating evidence and maybe valerie will take about that too when she comes up. we don t know what the motive is at this stage. we were asked earlier if there is likely terrorism involved. we have no indication of that. we haven t ruled it out. we continue to investigate that. we know that there are 13 fatalities, including the shooter, who perished today. we did we do have more information now on the
after the second person police were seeking, we have very little information. police said they are seeking to identify and to speak with a black man in his 40s who has gray sideburns who was seen wearing an olive drab military-style uniform. we do not know why law enforcement is seeking this person, beyond the fact that he was reportedly seen on surveillance footage in a way that made them want to talk to him. the fbi has released photos and basic information about the apparent shooter in the incident who died at the scene. his name is aaron alexis, 34 years old. he served just under four years in the navy reserves. he left the service in january 2011. he never served on active duty. his last posting was in ft. worth, texas, at the naval air station there, a couple years ago. local reporting indicated that he subsequently worked as a waiter at a thai restaurant near the naval air station in ft. worth. sources tell nbc news that he had recently started work as a civilian defense contrac
wolf, and gives some explanation why we ve seen so many helicopters in this region, presumably searching for these two individuals that the police chief identified as being potentially suspects and the second and third shooters. they re described as one of them is a white male wearing khaki clothing. he was last seen here at the unable yard at about the 8:35 this morning wearing a beret. that s not to say he is known to be in the military but he was wearing military style clothing. he had a handgun and that s one of the shooters potentially shooters. the third potential shooter is a black male identified as about 50 years old wearing olive drab again in a potential is military uniform. he is said to be in possession of a long gun. these are the have two individuals that this big manhunt is under way searching for. both, of course, the metropolitan police department and the u.s. park police. but also u.s. marshals and now the fbi is involved, as well.
last seen around 8:58, 8:40 this morning in a khaki tan military uniform, short sleeved with a beret hat, appeared to be like a naval uniform. that white male was last seen around 8:35 this morning with a handgun. we also have a lookout potential will another shooter that was a black male approximately 50 years of age who may have been in possession of a long gun. that person was wearing an olive drab colored possible military-style uniform. we have no information to believe that either of those folks are military personnel, but we do have information that those individuals are wearing military style uniforms. so anybody that has information that may have seen someone matching those descriptions, we are asking pore them to call the
a handgun. we have a look out for a shooter involved a black male 50 years of age, who may have been in possession of a long gun. olive drab covered military style uniform. so if you have seen these two individuals and matching this description, call the dc police department. we confrom park service sources that the swat team is going floor by floor in building 119 where the shooter took places. the one shooter was shot and contained. but they are slowly moving room to room for the fear that the two other suspects may be in the building in the navy yard. that is a huge question and it will impact motive in this case, jennifer, thank you very
