《美國廣播新聞網》(ABC)報導,位於夏威夷檀香山(Honolulu)、美海軍珍珠港基地(Joint Base Pearl Harbor-Hickam)內5日驚傳槍擊案,一名稍早被證實是現役潛艦士兵,持槍向基地內三名職員射擊,殺害其中兩人後選擇自戕身亡,留下3人死亡的不幸悲劇結果。
美國海軍稍早發出聲明稿,表示槍擊事發地點位於基地內2號乾船塢,槍手已確認身份、是一名隸屬核子潛艦「哥倫比亞號」(USS Columbia)的現役海軍士兵,但其犯案動機目前尚無法確認。
The sailor reportedly shot and injured three Department of Defense civilian workers before shooting themself. The incident took place this afternoon at the vicinity of the shipyard’s Dry Dock 2. The base is no longer in lockdown. #PearlHarbor

不過,為確保調查不受影響,美國海軍也指出,在更進一步的結果出爐前,軍方不會對外公開槍手的姓名或職別。
海軍和犯罪調查單位已著手清查,除要確認其動機外,也要查明槍枝是如何被挾帶進入軍事基地內。而另一位遭到槍擊的國防部職員,目前仍在醫院進行手術和觀察傷勢。
代表夏威夷州、聯邦參議員廣野慶子(Mazie Hirono)也向死者家屬表達哀悼之意,「我將密切關注、並追蹤這起槍擊案的後續調查進度,並確保當地百姓的生命安全獲得保障。」
While the investigation into this incident continues, my thoughts and aloha are with the victims of the terrible tragedy at #JBPHH and with their families. I join all of Hawaii in expressing our gratitude to the first responders who rush toward danger every day to keep us safe

The White House has reached out to offer assistance from federal agencies, and the state is standing by to assist where necessary.

現任州長大衛・伊藝(David Ige)稍早也透過推特,聯繫白宮尋求聯邦機構的協助。而白宮則表明,川普總統(Donald Trump)已聽取珍珠港基地槍擊案的簡報,並指示相關單位要密切掌握調查進度。
