Lockdown Lifted at NASJRB in FW

The base was on lockdown for an hour due to an unauthorized vehicle

The lockdown at Naval Air Station Joint Reserve Base in Fort Worth has been lifted.

A spokesperson at the NASJRB said the hour-long lockdown was caused when an unauthorized vehicle drove onto the base.

Petty Officer Second Class Nathan Gomez told The Dallas Morning News that a white Ram pickup truck drove through a security gate at 3 p.m. on Wednesday.

Shortly after that, all gates were closed.

At 3:30 p.m., the inbound lanes were reopened, but every vehicle will be searched before leaving the base.

The lockdown was lifted at about 4:30 p.m.

Officials are investigating.
