Shooting in Centreville near Westfields Area
At least 50 Ffx Cty cops have flew by my work in the past 20 minutes. The SWAT team mobile command unit went by a few minutes ago. Supposedly there is a shooter on the loose near Westfields in Centreville.
I called the security office Westfields Marriott where I used to work and they said they had about 70 cops swarm through that area and they told everyone to stay inside.
About 10 more cops just went by.
WTOP news said that whole are of RT 28 and Westfields BLVD is completely shut down due to massive police activity.

Supposedly someone in camoflouge went into the Sulleyfield District (next door to Westfields Marriott) police station and started shooting (uncomfirmed).
One police officer has been shot, and is still on the loose (confirmed).
There was also a carjacking very close by there earlier today but they are unsure if the two are related.
