According to Milley, the soldier was currently being evaluated for PTSD and investigators were looking at reports of a self-reported traumatic brain injury from serving four months in Iraq in 2011.

A soldier opened fire with a semi-automatic pistol Wednesday at Fort Hood — the scene of a mass shooting in 2009 — killing three servicemembers and wounding 16 others before fatally shooting himself.

The suspect, who had recently transferred to the central Texas base, began shooting at about 4 p.m. CDT, according to Lt. Gen. Mark Milley, commanding general of Fort Hood. He was assigned to the 13th Sustainment Command (Expeditionary).

The gunman entered two buildings — the medical and transportation brigades — and also fired his pistol from a vehicle, according to Milley.

“The shooter is dead,” said Milley during his news conference at the base. There is no indication of the shooting being terrorism related but nothing has been formally ruled out, he said.

The violence ended after 15 or 20 minutes, when a female military police officer engaged the suspect, who then shot himself in the head.

"It was clearly heroic, what she did," said Milley of the officer, who added he expects nothing else of his military police.
