(Corrects southwest Washington to southeast Washington in 2nd paragraph)
WASHINGTON (Reuters) -A military base in Washington, D.C., said it was on lockdown on Friday because of a potentially armed person.
Joint Base Anacostia-Bolling, in southeast Washington, on its Facebook page urged anyone who saw the person to run or hide.
“Barricade your door, turn off the lights and your cell phone ringer, and remain silent. If you are hiding, prepare to FIGHT,” it said.
The base hosts the Defense Intelligence Agency headquarters.
