WASHINGTON (AP) – 9:20 a.m.
A federal official says Navy security has seen surveillance video of two people jumping the fence in the vicinity of a building where gunfire was reported on the Washington Navy Yard campus.
The official said Thursday that the video showed the two jumping the fence a couple of minutes before the first report of the shots.
The official also says security has cleared the building and found no one inside.
The official spoke on condition of anonymity for lack of authorization to discuss details publicly.

The Washington Navy Yard was on lockdown Thursday morning after reports of gunshots, but a senior federal law enforcement official says there has been no confirmed report of any shooting.
The official says civilian and military law enforcement officers were sweeping the Navy Yard building, which had already been largely emptied. The official was receiving detailed briefings on the situation but spoke on condition of anonymity because the person was not authorized to discuss developments with reporters.
The official also says there have been no reports of injuries.
The FBI and the Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms and Explosives are on the scene.
