The lockdown happened Tuesday morning after an alleged shooting occurred near a platform by the facility’s Pentagon Metro station. According to the police, all of the entrances to the Pentagon have been secured.

The Arlington Fire Department confirmed to Fox News that there are multiple people down at the site of the shooting, but wouldn't comment on their conditions as the scene is still active.

Officer is dead RIP. He was stabbed to death.

They are still saying shooting. Officer fired on knife wielding man ? Striking bystanders?

More officers murdered than in the Jan 6 insurrection.

Actually, the Pentagon is south of the river and in Arlington. VA. It would have been in the ORIGINAL District, but that land was ceded BACK to VA in the 1850s. For all those DC statehood people, that is exactly what should happen to the DC north of the river, cede it back to Maryland.
