A lock down order has been lifted at a U.S. Air Force base in Arizona after officials got reports of "gunshot wounds" on Monday morning.

The lock down was lifted around 11:40 a.m. MST, about an hour and a half after officials at Tucson's Davis-Monthan Air Force Base warned people to take shelter.

Officials with the Tucson Police Department and Pima County Sheriff's Office told the Arizona Daily Star that they had officers watching the situation but they were not asked to assist.
