An active duty soldier is being identified as the cause of a shooting scare Monday morning at the Fort Lee Army base in Virginia.

The base was placed on lockdown when the female soldier reportedly entered a building waving a gun around.

She then turned the gun on herself and fired.

The soldier has not been identified.  She was taken to a local hospital.

The lockdown has since been lifted.  No other injuries were reported.
