Gunman Barricaded in Building at Colorado Air Base
Air Force officials say an airman armed with a pistol has barricaded himself in a building at a Colorado Air Force base that controls all GPS satellites, but operations haven't been disrupted.

Schriever (SHREE'-ver) Air Force Base spokeswoman Jennifer Thibault (THEE'-balt) says the building was evacuated after the standoff began Monday. She says no shots were fired and no one was injured.

Thibault says the airman is a member of a security squadron and is armed with his own handgun. Another spokeswoman says he faces a discharge over a matter in civilian court, but she didn't have details.

2. Well now he faces the likelihood of a discharge ... of multiple firearms at his person.
A more-permanent discharge, so to speak.
