A 59-year-old retired man shot and killed a female civilian worker Wednesday at Fort Lewis Army base, then shot and wounded himself.
The military police responded to shots fired at the Post Exchange on the base around 11:20 a.m.
The man was hospitalized in critical condition with a gunshot wound to the head and the relationship between the two is not known.
The FBI has taken the lead in the investigation and is talking with Fort Lewis authorities for help.
I can't imagine what the motive was for this man to open fire on this woman, but this could be a reminder on the wear on the body and mind of a retired soldier from war.
