A man brandishing an assault rifle, shotgun and handgun opened fire Monday inside a building at the Washington Navy Yard. The city police chief said 12 people were killed.

SWAT officers swarmed the building, the headquarters of the Naval Sea Systems Command, and a shooter there was killed, sources told NBC News.

Chief Cathy Lanier said there could be as many as two other suspects at large, one white and one black, both seen wearing military-style uniforms. But reports conflicted in the chaotic hours after the rampage, and there was no confirmation of more than one person firing shots.

The number of injured was not clear.

We wouldn't want to even start to do something about the endless series of mass slaughter by guns. In fact we seem to be hell-bent on undoing everything that has been done.

never suspecting today would be the last day of their lives.

My sympathies to their friends and family.
