army major nidal hasan did that.tually convicted of 13 counts of murder, 32 counts of attempted murder. that is a really rare occurrence, isn't it, general honore? >> absolutely, wolf. i think the data will show that. when it happens -- in the nidal case, hopefully we don't have a repeat of that, it's a double hit on our military families and our soldiers. because anywhere you wear that uniform people are looking at you with that eye of what might have happened on that post. it reflects on our community. but that's a strong community. they're resilient. they'll bounce back and they'll get better. hopefully not having to respond to another one of these anytime soon. and hopefully those families can get back to their lives. >> all right, general, thanks so much, general russell honore is joining us. let me show our viewers what's going on right now. you're looking at live pictures from fort hood,texas. we expect lieutenant general mark milley to be speaking momentarily. in fact i think he's at the microphone right now

remember, something similar happened in 2009 involving nidal hasan. i want to go now to a psychologist who interviewed nidal hasan who killed 13 people and injured 30 plus in 2009. he joins me now by telephone. doctor, were you surprised when you heard about another shooting at ft. hood, texas? >> i can't say i was entirely surprised, no. no, i wasn't. >> is this because of the stress that our soldiers are under? is this because of ptsd? why aren't you surprised? >> well, first, a lot of your guests have been talking about security. it's impossible to secure a fort of that size. there are over 45,000, 50,000 active soldiers and their families, 8,000 civilians. i've been on that base numerous times. i was never searched. it's not a place you can make entirely safe from gunfire. but in addition to that, in the wake of major hasan's shooting in 2009, the military leaders acknowledged that we have r rampant emotional problems in our returning vets from iraq and afghanistan. our suicide rate from returning iraqi veterans is 11% higher than those from vietn

and major nidal hasan convicted of that shooting, 13 people gunned down.ase obviously went through all kinds of security, all kinds of situations and review. now we're hearing of another shooting. we don't know the extent of this yet. but obviously, something that is extremely serious. >> also, a very difficult situation for this base. this is one of the largest army bases in the country, bret. difficult to secure a place like that that has so many armed people coming and going on the base, but yes, there has been very tight security there since the nidal hasan incident in 2009 in which the 13 people were killed. 30 others were injured. they were preparing to head overseas when he opened fire on them. so of course, ft. hood is unfortunately familiar with this kind of incident. they know what to do, and that's why they're putting out the alerts, and that's why the alarms are going off, and that's why they're not taking any chances right now. >> here is what the local affiliates there have, reports of an active shooter on ft. hood. reports there are several

the first one, nidal hasan in 2009, killing 13 people, wounding 32. now we have another member of the military killing three people and himself. i want to go to general james "spider" marks. we have been communicating by e-mail and you've been talking about pre and post deployment medical screening. that would indicate something to you. >> absolutely. before a soldier deploys, he or she goes through a predeployment medical screening and you get into all the details that might be affecting that soldier, physical, psychological and it has to be done online and a doctor has to validate that. when that soldier redeploys, you go through the same process. what you have is a before and an after view, and you want to overlay those two to see what the discrepancies are. what might have affected this soldier during that period of deployment. so what happened with this soldier as indicated, he deployed in 2011. if he went through the process as he should have done, he would have come back and within short order, probably a month or so, it would have been diagnos

i this i when i got on that flight nidal hasan had been killed. the details changed. it was still on lockdown. we don't really know what is going on. >> i think we all agree there's consensus here on that but you do have sources and they are telling you -- >> that it looks like it was some sort of personal -- >> dispute? >> yeah. yes. i mean, there's obviously a large number of people who were injured. so i -- i mean, i'm not going to speculate on what kind of situation that could possibly be. but i think certainly there are a lot of questions that are not answered right now. >> let's go to access of guns on a base. i don't think, as ted was saying, that every person on a base should have access to a weapon but certainly men and women in uniform can't have access to a base yet we give them that in the field when they are out there on the field fighting wars for us. does that make sense? >> that certainly doesn't make sense when you think about what could have happened if an authorized person had a weapon, something like this went down, they could have reacted very qui

we've made reference to the nidal hasan shooting.you think about that, wide enough to get the lay of the base again. that area is actually down over toward the far end down here, the western end. that's where all of that occurred. and there are some schools over here, a college out here. one thing we should mention here, john, we talked about the nidal hasan shooting, the incident today. but 23 years ago, if i remember, the neighboring community here, collee n, had the largest mass shooting in the history at the time, the luby cafeteria massacre. if you think about the military community and civilian community working together has faced many extraordinary things in recent memory. many people there remember the luby cafeteria massacre as well. >> i do think it's important to note it's a community that most people should know for the bravery and heroism for the people who serve at that army base. there are people, soldiers rotating in constantly including many who have come back from afghanistan recently and thousands of members of the

in 2011 the vigilance paid off when the federal bureau of investigation arrested nidal hasan -- arrested another soldier who planned to bomb a restaurant frequented by fort hood's soldiers. >> it's not unusual that fort hood's name came up several tames because nidal hasan planted a seed. >> that community is strong. as military families, you don't look forward to anything like this happening, but you brace yourself for blows like this. >> and the community finds itself here again. after five years, they wonder why the violence has taken root here, and what can be done to pull it out. >> an unexpected stop for the u.s. defense secretary. he will tour the first aircraft carrier tomorrow. the first foreign visitor on board the ship is chuck hagel. the secretary of the past urged china to be more transparent. chuck hagel arrived on a 10-day tour. >> president obama is expected to make equal pay for women a reality, two bills ailed at increasing transparency. it will prevent federal contractors from punishing workers who discuss what they make. >> votes are being counted in afghanistan's his

five years ago in 2009, major nidal hasan killed 13 people and wounded many more. the latest shooting has some in town wondering how a gun got through the post security checks but killeen's mayor says he's not surprised. >> the truth is, you can't make sure that something like this doesn't happen again. it's impossible to search these tens and thousands of vehicles to ensure that nobody is bringing a handgun on post. you couldn't possibly do that and still have an effective workforce. >> reporter: and bill, we know since that 2009 shooting there are some new security measures in place. for instance, on post there's more of a community watch atmosphere, people looking out for each other. also, commanders have been given training to look for workplace violence and dispatchers to pinpoint the source, location of cell phone calls when they are dealing with a system like this. all of those systems were in play, bill. >> this is still a place that houses and employs over 50,000 people. it's like a city there. >> reporter: absolutely. it's a big city. yeah. >> george, tha

it was in 2009 that major nidal hasan killed 13 on the same post and wounded 32. it was in august of last year that the community was able to find closure when a panel sentenced nidal hasan to death, to be executed. just when they were turning the page on that shooting this happens, and people are left questioning how that happened and how further violence could be prevented. >> that's al jazeera. heidi zhou-castro reporting from fort hood. ivan lopez was treated for anxiety and depression, the army doesn't believe it has anything to do with the shootings. >> it's a remote region in georgia, in light of the crisis in ukraine, residents fear they may be sitting ducks for a russian invasion. >> a baby sick at sea. her family adventure ending with a u.s. navy rescue. >> take a look at the stunning images of a solar flare captured by n.a.s.a. this week. they are powerful bursts of radiation from the sun. when strong enough they can disrupt gps and communication signals. wednesday's is classified as a mideastern flare. back to worldly matters, russia's relations to ukr

hood with the horrific nidal hassan case. colonel, you spent a lot of time on a lot of basis, but here's the question about ft. hood. it is a huge base, it is one of the most important in the country in the world to the united states. it is the single biggest one-site employer in the state of texas. two mass shootings at the same base in five years. how could that happen? >> well, that's the big question, erin, tonight. and it's a really tragic situation. this is a horrible situation where you have many people, of course, trying to find answers but the key thing is the command climate. if the command climate isn't the right kind of command climate that people feel they can go to their supervisors and get answers to things and help with problems and things of that nature, that could be a problem. >> what about the whole issue of arms on the base. this is going to be a hot topic. under almost no situation, soldiers are not allowed to carry personal weapons at these facilities. here's the question, this guy brought one in and th

the shootings stirred up painful memories of the 2009 mass shooting at fort hood when army major nidal hassan killed 13 people. u.s. president barack obama talked about all of that during a stop in chicago. >> we're heartbroken that something like this might have happened again and i don't want to comment on the facts until i know exactly what has happened but for now i would just hope that everybody across the country is keeping the families and the community of fort hood in our thoughts and in our prayers. >> cnn producer job rubin is at fort hood, it's just after 2:00 in the morning. he joins us on the phone. josh, at this point we know a lot more about what happened on this that base. walk us through the details. >> well, john, earlier in the evening the base commander lieutenant general mark millie came out to give us a bit of a timeline about what occurred. there's still some sketchy details right now but listen to what he had to say. >> in the exact sequence of events and timeline of events are not 100% clear. it's believed he walked into one of the unit buildings, opened fire,

nidal hassan is now on death row. authorities gave the all- clear at kent state university, after a gunman fired a bullet into the ground near a classroom building wednesday night. the gunshot apparently followed a dispute between a man and a woman. ten police agencies and a swat team responded. some buildings were put in lock-down mode while others were evacuated. the man was later arrested off-campus. five people have been arrested following an attack on a homeless man at a park in campbell last month. a 16-year-old boy was stabbed to death during the fight. kron 4 spoke with the homeless man who was originally taken into custody following the stabbing. he was released after prosecutors found he had acted in self defense against ivan diaz. campbell police released photos of all five suspects -- allegedly associated with the sureno gang. two of them are minors but will be charged as adults. they face murder charges under the state's "provocative act doctrine" -- even though it was the stabbd diaz. san jose state will

a whole month, the month of august down there covering every single day of that court martial for nidal hasan and was there when the verdict came down. i had the chance to talk to family members of the people who were killed back on november 5th, 2009. and when you see an active shooting situation starting to cross at fort hood, a place that has already been through so much and was literally trauma advertised and changed forever back in 2009 with that shooting, you know, it just gives you goose bumps. greta, you said it, i heard your interview there with jennifer griffin. i know everyone is trying to work the phones at this moment is a very fluid situation. the facts are very fluid as they are in these breaking news types of situations. but, jennifer talked about this and i want to elaborate on it a little bit more. fort hood is huge. it's called the great place. boy is it ever. i spent an awful lot of time there, got to know a lot of the soldiers that work there. in fact, one of the largest military installations in the world. 340 square miles just stop and think about how large that i

major nidal hasan opened fire, killing 13, injuring dozens more.ain, this base going through another tragedy once again. we know that at least 16 people are in various hospitals here in this area. and again, three dead. that number not including lopez, who shot and killed himself. >> all right, george howell. thank you so much. and we certainly wish everyone well, their families this morning who are grieving, families this morning who are still waiting to hope that their loved ones can get better. some of these are in critical condition. thanks, george. >> absolutely. we'll keep you updated as we have more on that, but cnn has learned from multiple sources that the shooter is specialist ivan lopez. here's what we know about him. lopez had served four months in iraq back in 2011. he had only recently transferred to ft. hood back in february and was in the process of being evaluated for possible ptsd. he was under treatment for depression and anxiety, and he only recently purchased the smith and wesson .45 caliber pistol used in the shooting. neighbo

time around at fort hood, this administration, even though we feel it was clearly terrorism -- and nidale out and started shooting people and as he was doing it he was screaming allahç akbar. terrorism. the administration said this was workplace violence. look at it now. this was workplace violence. didn't they learn anything the last time around? keep in mind i believe it was during the clinton administration when they decided men and women on base shouldn't be able to carry arms even though they are trained professionals. what we have learned twice now at fort hood and last september at the navy yard is these guys are sitting ducks. somebody comes in there, they have a gun, there's nothing they can do. >> the rules there specify service members assigned to fort hood are not allowed to hold arms. if they do, register them, they can beç possessed and registered no later than five working days after storing them at the firearm at fort hood. they may have them, register them and then put them in a specific location locked away. so those that are trained to defend in cases like this are l

. >> reporter: the doctor interviewed nidal hasan who killed 13 here in 2009. mental health issues, he says, must be aggressively treated particularly when anti-depressants are given. >> you have to be very cautious and take care to be aware of which symptoms are developing more quickly than others. people's motivation comes back, their ability to sleep, they're still feeling energy, but still hopeless and suicidal. >> reporter: a smith smith & wesson .45 like this one. it was purchased legally and properly on march 1st at guns galore here in killeen. it's the same place major nidal hasan purchased his semiautomatic pistol before his 2009 rampage and where jason ado who wanted to repeat hasan's acts purchased amunation and gunpowder. it led to his arrest before he could carry out his plans to kill. even though lopez bought his gun legally the military says any gun on base must be registered. his was not. now, what we still do not know, wolf, is whether or not this act was premeditated or not. the general saying there were reports of an argument with other soldi

we all remember what happened back in 2009 with major nidal hasan went he went on a rampage. attempted murder, convicted, 32 others targeting soldiers that were set to deploy to afghanistan. we have no information that what's going on right now is at all connected to that. but you hear the words "an active shooter" at ft. hood, that i brs back awful memories. >> it does. but in that case the u.s. army and the fbi have a memorandum understanding that if the shooter is a member of the military and if the victims are military, then the u.s. army criminal investigative division will take the lead. normally a shooting like this on a u.s. military base, the fbi would have primary jurisdiction, but in this case, unfortunately because of the frequency of these type of issues over the years, they worked out an agreement with the army to let army cid investigate this. >> what if civilians have been killed? >> well, that's still going to be -- it's an army base, so it's a u.s. government reservation. authorities from the state of texas will have no jurisdiction on that base. >> barbara,

they are the same individuals that engaged in the shootout with nidal hasan back in 2009. you also are going to have military police that have the capability on that base of responding. so they are going to be your rapid deployment forces. then, of course, they can call in local law enforcement from outside the base, the fbi will be responding, atf will be responding. there will be a number of agencies that are coming but right now that search is going to be really in the hands of the uniform police and military police and probably army all that are going to be doing at the same time there is going to be a command post set up. every agency bringing in law enforcement to help search and hunt whether s.w.a.t. teams or search dogs to try to put a circle around the area where they think the second shooter might be and then close that ring in. so number one make sure that he or she doesn't get a chance to shoot anyone else and get that person in custody. >> so when you hear that this is two shooters and there is confirmation it is two shooters it automatically is some form of a

in fact, the entire month of august when we were covering the court martial of major nidal hasan andere there, we were in the community. we were eating in the restaurants. we were talking to soldiers. and we spent a lot of time there getting to know folks. fort hood is known as the great place, shepard. that's what the post is called. it's on all of the signage as you drive into the gates there. as we have been saying a huge army post. one of the largest military installations in the world. some 340 square miles. they can house about 82,000 enlisted personnel and 6,000 officers on that post. it is a very tight-knit community. they were scarred. that may just be an understatement. they were scared in 2009 after hasan opened fire in that medical processing building and that's what really strikes me about this and the reporting of jennifer griffin and the officials that we are talking to on the ground down at fort hood as well is that this shooting appears tonight to have happened outside of the first medical brigade and that is some type of a medical facility and it's eerily similar to
