CHATTANOOGA, Tenn. (AP) — The U.S. Attorney in eastern Tennessee says the attacks on two military facilities in Tennessee is being treated as a terrorism investigation.
Bill Killian, the U.S. Attorney for the eastern district of Tennessee, said Thursday that the probe is being led by the FBI. Killian says investigators will “let the facts and the evidence lead us where it may.”
The police chief in Chattanooga says officers in the city dragged a wounded colleague to safety during a gunfight with the man who killed four Marines in an attack on two military sites.
Chief Fred Fletcher called the officers heroes for their actions and said Thursday during a news conference that their actions prevented an additional loss of life.
The gunman, who also died in the attack, has been identified by authorities as 24-year-old Muhammad Youssef Abdulazeez.
