AlertDC and the D.C. Homeland Security and Emergency Management Agency sent an Integrated Public Alert and Warning System Shelter in Place Warning for the District of Columbia on Thursday1.

The IPAWS record listed the notice as Severe, Immediate and Observed, under event code SPW1. It was issued at 8:59 a.m. EST and set to expire at 9:59 a.m. EST1.

The wireless text said Metropolitan Police had ordered people indoors in the immediate vicinity of the 1500 block of 15th Street NW, to stay away from windows, and to remain indoors until further notice1.

WUSA9 reported that multiple people were shot Thursday morning inside and around the Logan Circle location of Vida Fitness at 15th and P streets Northwest, and that police had lifted a shelter-in-place order around the gym2.

WUSA9 said police described a suspect as contained2. Interim Metropolitan Police Chief Jeffery Carroll said the suspect shot himself, the station reported, without stating the suspect's condition2.

WUSA9 said police believed the suspect had a conflict with management of an apartment building that shares a building with the gym2.

The IPAWS item did not state casualties, a motive, or the suspect's condition1.
