Two people are dead in a shooting at a military base in San Antonio, Texas, authorities said.
The attack at Lackland Air Force Base, a part of Joint Base San Antonio, appears to be a murder-suicide, Bexar County Sheriff’s Office spokesman James Keith told MSNBC. The base said in a statement that there were no indications that it was related to terrorism.

Sydney Spalding was heading towards the graduation field to see a friend graduate from the Air Force when the base went under lockdown.
“We were driving around looking for somewhere to park and an announcement came on all over base saying there was an active shooter in building 147,” Spalding, 20, said. “You saw different airmen running in uniform and people spreading out. We were still in the car debating if we could leave. We parked and were trying to find somewhere to hide out and was pulled into a dark building to hide out.”
