A shooting Thursday at a Texas naval installation has been linked to terrorism, and a second suspect could still be at large, an FBI official told reporters.

The suspected shooter at Naval Air Station Corpus Christi is dead, the FBI also announced at a press briefing. The Navy had earlier announced that security forces “neutralized” an active shooter at the installation and that one security forces member had been injured.

"We have determined that the incident this morning at Naval Air Station Corpus Christi is terrorism-related," FBI Senior Supervisory Special Agent Leah Greeves told reporters.

"The subject is deceased. The scene is still being processed,” Greeves continued. “We may have a potential second related person of interest at large in the community, but we would encourage the public to remain calm and if you see something, say something."
