He first committed a drive-by shooting at a recruiting center, then traveled to a U.S. Navy Reserve center and continued firing, where he was killed by police in a gunfight. Four Marines died on the spot. A Navy Sailor, a Marine recruiter, and a police officer were wounded; the sailor died from his injuries two days later. The motive behind the shootings is currently under investigation. ==Shootings== The shootings began shortly after 10:30 a.m. at the Armed Forces Career Center in a strip mall located on Lee Highway. The Center recruited personnel for branches of the United States military, including the U.S. Army, the U.S. Air Force, and the Tennessee National Guard. There, Abdulazeez fired 30 to 45 shots into the office from inside a silver rental Ford Mustang convertible, wounding a U.S. Marine. He then escaped and led members of the Chattanooga Police Department on a pursuit. At the time of the first shooting, only seven people, including the wounded Marine, were inside the recruiting center.〔 Abdulazeez drove to a U.S. Navy Reserve center on Amnicola Highway in Chattanooga,〔 where he rammed his vehicle through a security gate.〔 He drove to one of the center's buildings, where the Inspector-Instructor staff of Mike Battery, 3rd Battalion, 14th Marines and Sailors were working. Abdulazeez first fired at it, then charged inside and continued firing, fatally wounding a U.S. Navy Sailor. Abdulazeez then exited the building through the back and entered a fenced motor pool area, where he shot several Marines. Three to five minutes after the second shooting began, he reentered the building, where he fired upon responding police officers and was fatally shot by them.〔〔 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア(Wikipedia)』 ■ウィキペディアで「2015 Chattanooga shootings」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
