Tridentis, a privately-held professional engineering firm, is located inside Washington DC’s Navy Yard. Since earlier this morning, the company has been live-tweeting from inside the lockdown.
Police and guards running around the Washington Navy Yard. Unsure of what's going on.

Washington Navy Yard still on lock down. Hearing that there were multiple shootings at NAVSEA

US Navy is saying it's still an active shooter

On lock down at the Navy Yard sitting with engineers from blg 197. Watching the news describe what we do in that building.

At least 5 shot.

We still have an active shooter at the navy yard. You should not be walking around.

Reports that the FBI is on-site at the navy yard. Seems very strange.

@theHillisHome we are on-site and reporting the best we can.

Reporting that the shooter used a shotgun inside building 197 seems wrong. You can't even get a cell phone in that building.

Makes sense RT@amitalkincrazy: @Tridentis The reports we're hearing outside is that the shooter used an AR. Security was the 1st to be shot.
— Tridentis (@Tridentis) September 16, 2013
Officer just informed us that they have the shooter trapped in a building. We don't know which one though.
