Survivors told FOX News that one of the shooters looked to be a tall, African-American man, "We were looking," the witness described, "but he was down the hall far enough that we couldn't see a face. But we saw him hold the rifle and then we saw him raise it and aim in our direction."

Police, Navy officials and ATF members were at the scene and continuing to investigate, as well as looking for additional shooters.
