New Details

Tom Harwood of GB News reveals:

Interim Chief of Police Jeffery W. Carroll says Police do have an idea who the Washington DC Vida Fitness shooter is.
Carroll reveals he is a white male, adding "we do know there was a conflict between him and the homeowners association of the building."
Investigation is ongoing as to the exact motivation. A fire was set at some point. Sprinklers did go off. It has been contained and put out at this time.

Harwood continued:

Carroll reveals police negotiators were talking to the suspect on the phone, there was then a gunshot heard, and the suspect stopped communicating. Carroll says he can confirm the suspect shot himself.
