Media statement: Lockdown at Los Angeles Air Force Base

Los Angeles Air Force Base has reopened. At 1:29 pm today LA AFB security received a report of suspicious activity on the base. The safety and security of our personnel is our top priority. Out of an abundance of caution, the base was placed on lock down in order to conduct a building-to-building search. The search is complete and security forces have determined that there was no threat. Now that we are assured of the safety of our personnel, we have reopened the base for normal operations.
