We’ll update as necessary…
Just drove by, seems like quite a police presence. Would make sense for that response

UPDATE:
It looks like a false alarm:
FPS reports that the gunshots at EPA's Headquarters were unfounded, there were no injuries and the building is secure.

After the Scalise shooting, I’m sure everyone’s on edge.
