U.S. Air Force security guards exchanged gunfire with at least one occupant of a vehicle who opened fire at an entrance to Joint Base San Antonio-Lackland early Saturday, according to a spokesperson for the base.
Guards returned fire after gunfire erupted from a passing vehicle at a base entrance around 4:30 a.m., public affairs chief Stefanie Antosh told the San Antonio Express-News. No injuries were reported.
It was not known how many rounds were fired, how many shooters there were or what their motive was, Antosh said.
“We don’t know what, if anything, started it,” Antosh said. “But it wasn’t an active threat to the installation, and there is no active threat to the installation.”
