SAN ANTONIO (AP) — San Antonio police have arrested a gunman for shooting at the main gate of Fort Sam Houston.

A San Antonio police officer says police arrested a gunman Monday afternoon and turned him over the military authorities. The officer was speaking anonymously because the person were not authorized to speak to the media.

Kathy Salazar, a staff member in the base public affairs office, said the base was on lock down, but could offer no additional details.

A San Antonio television station showed one person taken away in an ambulance, but it was not immediately clear who was injured or how.
