Wire reporting: (AFP, via Arab News)

A shooting Thursday morning in and around the Logan Circle Vida Fitness in Washington killed one person and wounded four others, local outlets reported^1,2.

WUSA9 said the shooting was around 8 a.m. at 15th and P streets Northwest¹.

Washington City Paper said Metropolitan Police issued a shelter-in-place for the 1500 block of 15th Street NW and that nearby schools were on lockdown².

Council member Brooke Pinto said the shooting occurred at and outside a fitness center and that multiple people had been shot, according to an AFP dispatch carried by Arab News³.

Interim Metropolitan Police Chief Jeffrey Carroll said the suspect shot himself, WUSA9 reported; Carroll did not publicly describe the suspect's condition in the portion of remarks quoted there¹.

WUSA9 said police believed the suspect had a conflict with management of the apartment building that shares space with the gym¹.

City Paper's earlier account, citing other local reporting, said a shooter may have been barricaded on a high floor above the gym; WUSA9's page still described a barricaded suspect while also quoting Carroll on a self-inflicted gunshot^2,1.

Witnesses described gunfire inside the gym and people sheltering at a nearby bagel shop, both outlets reported^1,2.

A motive beyond the reported building-management dispute was not established in the accounts reviewed¹.

Arab News, carrying AFP, said police were looking for a suspect at the time of that dispatch³.
