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.
