No sign of shooting at San Diego Navy medical center
The US Navy says an initial inspection at the Naval Medical Center San Diego found no sign of a gunman or a shooting.
The disclosure comes after military police checked Building 26 after a person reported hearing three shots in the basement earlier in the day, Navy spokesman N. Scott Sutherland said.
The base remained on lockdown as authorities went from room to room and led personnel out of the facility.
TV images showed uniformed Navy personnel walking outside the medical facility. Their hands were in the air and they were being patted down by base police as a precaution.
School officials said a lockdown had ended and instruction has resumed at three schools near the medical center.
The Navy hospital previously said on its Facebook page that an active shooter was reported and people were told to run, hide or fight.
