Security forces at the Joint Base San Antonio-Lackland (JBSA) returned fire early Saturday on at least one drive-by suspect who is accused of firing upon the main gate at the JBSA-Chapman Training Annex, a JBSA spokesperson tells Fox News Digital.
The officers were fired upon at around 4:30 a.m. by at least one suspect in a sedan and immediately returned fire. There were no injuries reported, and the gate was shut for a number of hours.
It is unclear how many shooters were involved and how many times they fired upon the base.
"There was no active threat to the installation … and our security forces responded to mitigate the threat," spokesperson Stefanie Antosh said, noting that the suspect or suspects did not try to breach the gates.
San Antonio police officers also arrived at the scene to assist in the investigation, Antosh said.
A motive for the shooting is not known.
The JBSA-Chapman Training Annex entry gate was closed and reopened at around 9:30 a.m. local time. Drivers were advised to use an alternate gate located north of primary on Ray Ellison Boulevard.
