Description

On September 16, 2013, Aaron Alexis entered Building 197 at the Washington Navy Yard, where he served as an independent contractor, and carried out a deadly workplace mass shooting. He terrorized thousands of employees of Naval Sea Systems Command, firing indiscriminately from a shotgun he had legally purchased two days earlier and a handgun he had taken from a security guard after mortally wounding the guard. He also got into multiple shooting engagements with responding law enforcement officers, seriously injuring a Metropolitan Police Department (MPD) officer. In his final confrontation with police, Alexis ambushed and fired upon another MPD officer, who was saved by his protective vest and was able to kill Alexis and end his rampage. Alexis had shot and killed twelve people and injured several others. In the wake of the incident, an internal review team was assembled to conduct a comprehensive and detailed assessment. This is their report, which provides a narrative of the multi-agency response and culminates in a summary of MPDäó»s overall observations and recommendations. Figures. This is a print on demand report.
