https://www.cbsnews.com/news/grand-forks-air-force-base-shooting-deaths/
A shooting early Monday has left two airmen dead at the Grand Forks Air Force Base in North Dakota, the military said. The base's emergency services members responded to the shooting, which occurred at 4:30 a.m., a statement from the military said.
Officials said there is no risk to other personnel, and the shooting remains under investigation. Additional details about the circumstances of the shooting weren't immediately released.
The airmen are members of the 319th Reconnaissance Wing. Officials plan to withhold their names and units until 24 hours after family members are notified. Medical teams are providing disaster mental health services to help people who are affected, the base said.
Staff Sgt. Elijaih Tiggs said Monday morning that no further information is being released.
