FBI links shooting at recruiting center to 2 others
The FBI said on Thursday that it has linked a shooting at a Marine Corps recruiting station in a Virginia suburb outside the U.S. capital to two other shootings at the Pentagon and a Marine Corps museum.
“A shooting at a military-related facility in Chantilly, Va., has been linked to two earlier shootings at similar facilities laboratory tests show,” the FBI said in a statement, adding that it would not release any further details.
Investigators believe a high-powered rifle was used to fire up to seven shots at the Pentagon, shattering two windows, early October 19. The FBI said it had linked that shooting to another at the National Museum of the Marine Corps two days earlier.
Ammunition, casing and chicken feathers found have been matched and the hunt is on.
