The FBI says Texas shooting that wounded sailor and left gunman dead is being investigated as “terrorism-related.”

A shooting at a Texas naval air station that wounded a sailor and left the gunman dead is being investigated as “terrorism-related,” the FBI said Thursday.The gunman tried to speed through a gate at the base in a vehicle and opened fire on security workers, U.S. officials said. A female sailor who is a member of the security force at the base was struck but was able to roll over and hit a switch that raised a barrier, stopping the vehicle from getting onto the base.

The man got out of the vehicle and was killed in an exchange of gunfire with security personnel, said the officials, who spoke on condition of anonymity to discuss details about an ongoing investigation.Initially there was concern that the shooter might have had explosives, the officials said, But Navy explosives experts did not find any.

The sailor was treated for a minor injury at a hospital and discharged, according to a statement from the station command. The FBI is investigating the shooting as “terrorism-related,” FBI Special Agent Leah Greeves said at a news conference Thursday afternoon, and investigators were working to determine whether a second person of interest was at large in the community.

“We have determined that the incident this morning at the Naval Air Station Corpus Christi is terrorism-related,” Greeves said. “We are working diligently with our state, local and federal partners on this investigation, which is fluid and evolving.”Greeves did not elaborate on a potential motive or specify what led investigators to believe the shooting is related to terrorism.
