EVERYTHING I AM
Aaron Alexis killed 12 people and wounded another eight at a Naval Yard in Washington D.C. yesterday, beginning at 8:20 am. Alexis was a former military man who worked on Naval Yards across the country this summer without any reported issues. He was twice questioned in shootings, once for shooting out someone's tires in a "blackout fueled rage," and another for shooting through a neighbors wall after she was too loud. He was discharged from the Navy following that incident.
PTSD is reportedly on the table as a reason for the shooting. Other than that, the FBI doesn't really have any leads. Friends say Alexis was quiet, learning Buddhism and embraced its nonviolent path.
The 12 people murdered in the shooting were long-time employees, and a mixture of civilian and military contractors.
Alexis used an AR-15 in his attack, the same gun used in Sandy Hook and Aurora, CO.
