The FBI says a shooting at a Texas naval air station that wounded a sailor and left the gunman dead is being investigated as “terrorism-related.” The shooting began around 6:15 a.m. Thursday at Naval Air Station-Corpus Christi. U.S. officials speaking on condition of anonymity to discuss an ongoing investigation say the shooter tried to speed through a gate at the base in a vehicle, but security personnel put up a barrier to stop him. They say the man then got out of the car and opened fire, wounding a member of the security force at the base. The shooter was killed by security personnel.
