HONOLULU, HI – The Pearl Harbor shooting resulted in the death of two civilian Defense Department employees and left one injured. The shooter is a U.S. Navy sailor who ultimately took his own life at Hawaii’s Pearl Harbor military installation.

According to the commander of Navy Region Hawaii, Rear Adm. Robert Chadwick, the Pearl Harbor shooting took place near Dry Dock 2. Specifically, at Joint Base Pearl Harbor-Hickam, near the Naval shipyard.

Furthermore, Chadwick reported that the shooter is a male, and that he was an active-duty sailor appointed to USS Columbia. It should be noted that USS Columbia is a nuclear-powered Los Angeles-class fast attack submarine.
