U.S. Army Post Fort Hood in Killeen, Texas, has been placed on lockdown due to reports of a potential active shooter incident.
President Donald Trump recently announced that the base would revert to its original name, Fort Hood, after being renamed “Fort Cavazos” in 2023.
At roughly 7 p.m. local time, military officials initiated emergency protocols, and posts to social media reported active shooter alarms and a lockdown.
Video from the scene featured a loudspeaker announcing, “An Active shooter incident is occurring on the installation, avoid all outdoor areas. If the active shooter is in your building or nearby, lock the door.”
