Interim D.C. Police Chief Jeffrey Carroll on Thursday confirmed a gunman killed one person inside the VIDA Fitness on 15th Street in Logan Circle. Carroll told reporters during a press conference at 14th and Corcoran Streets, N.W., which is about two blocks from the scene, that the Metropolitan Police Department immediately responded to the scene shortly before 8 a.m. after it received reports that shots had been fired inside the gym. Carroll said four people were also shot — one of them is in critical condition. The suspected gunman who Carroll said was a member of VIDA Fitness later barricaded himself in a 7th floor apartment above the gym, and shot at responding officers. Carroll told reporters police found the suspected gunman with a self-inflicted gunshot wound. “This lone gunman has been contained,” D.C. Mayor Muriel Bowser told reporters.
