Fort Hood Shooting Pentagon Report

Pentagon releases "Fort Hood Shooting Report". Eight Army Officers may face charges in the Foot Hood incident.

The Fort Hood shooting was a mass murder that took place on November 5, 2009, at Fort Hood, the most populated United States military base in the world, located just outside Killeen, Texas, killing 13 people and wounding 30 other military and civilian personnel.

The identified shooter is Nidal Malik Hasan, a U.S. Army major serving as a psychiatrist. He was shot by civilian police officers and is now under arrest. Hasan has been charged with 13 counts of premeditated murder and 32 counts of attempted murder under the Uniform Code of Military Justice; he may face additional charges at court-martial.

Hasan is a Muslim of Palestinian descent. Accounts in the media have stated that he had expressed radical beliefs. Additionally, investigations before and after the shooting discovered e-mail communications between Hasan and Anwar al-Awlaki, who later condoned and blessed the attack. After communications between the two were forwarded to FBI terrorism task force in 2008, they determined Hasan was not a threat prior to the shooting and that his questions to al-Awlaki were consistent with medical research.

Initial report states that at approximately 1:34 P.M. CST, Hasan entered his workplace, the Soldier Readiness Center, where personnel receive routine medical treatment immediately prior to and on return from deployment. According to eyewitnesses, he took a seat at an empty table, bowed his head for several seconds, and then stood up and opened fire. Initially, Hasan reportedly jumped onto a desk and shouted: "Allahu Akbar!", before firing more than 100 rounds at soldiers processing through the center, and on a crowd gathered for a college graduation ceremony scheduled for 2 p.m. in a nearby theater. Witnesses reported that Hasan appeared to focus on soldiers in uniform. He had two handguns, a FN Five-seven semi-automatic pistol, which he had purchased at a civilian gun store, and a .357 Magnum revolver which he may not have fired. A medic who treated Hasan said his combat fatigues pockets were full of pistol magazines.
