It was a scary scene at Kirtland Air Force Base in Albuquerque, New Mexico, last Wednesday afternoon.
Men in tactical gear and Humvees could be seen after phone calls were made to base security officials regarding an active shooter at around 2:30pm.
Someone said they thought they heard shots being fired near a building
on the west side of the base. A precautionary lock-down was initiated.
One airman said he was concerned, but the base is prepared for such
emergencies.
At around 3:15pm the base lifted the lock-down, saying security personnel found no threat to the base. On Thursday, the base said the scare was sparked by someone popping heavy-duty bubble wrap.
