Original story published at 8:40 p.m. ET]
A suspected shooter at Fort Hood, Texas, is dead, other people are injured and the situation is still considered an active scene, multiple U.S. officials told CNN on Wednesday night.
The Army installation, in an evening statement, said it had an initial report that a shooter was dead, "but this is unconfirmed."
"The injured personnel are being transported to Carl R. Darnall Medical Center and other local hospitals. Numerous law enforcement agencies are in support and on the scene. The number of injured are not confirmed at this time," it said.
The initial report is the incident started as a soldier-on-soldier attack, law enforcement sources told CNN. The initial assessment is the incident is not terror-related, the sources said.
President Barack Obama was briefed and spoke Wednesday evening about the incident.
"The situation is fluid right now ... I want to just assure all of us we are going to get to the bottom of exactly what happened," the President said. "We're heartbroken something like this might have happened again." He was referring to a 2009 massacre at Fort Hood.
