Oceana Naval Air Station was briefly put under lockdown this morning after a person was reported as having a gun.

The lockdown was lifted around 11:20 a.m. Navy officials said a person was seen openly carrying a weapon in Building 513 at the base, and officials directed visitors into a nearby hangar.

No other details were available.

The air wing of the USS George H.W. Bush aircraft carrier is scheduled to return to Oceana later today.
