Joint Base San Antonio-Lackland was placed under lockdown on Tuesday morning following reports of shots fired near the base.

In a tweet around 10 am, JBSA said, “Security forces and local law enforcement are currently responding to reports of gunshots heard off-base in the vicinity of Joint Base San Antonio.” 

In a follow-up tweet, the base gave details on buildings that are on lockdown.

“All facilities on Truemper Road, from Valley Hi to Carswell Avenue, and on Carswell Avenue from Truemper Road to the 341st Training Squadron training complex are locked down to allow Security Forces to complete operations.”
