He was the fifth person to die after being shot on Thursday by Mohammad Youssuf Abdulazeez, 24, who opened fire on two military centers. The gunman, a naturalised US citizen born in Kuwait, died in a shootout with police.
The Navy said his name would not be released for the next 24 hours pending notification of next-of-kin. Four Marines also died in Thursday&rsquo;s attack, which authorities are treating as an &ldquo;act of terrorism.&rdquo;
Officials believe the evidence points to an attack inspired by the Islamic State extremist group. The FBI has asked foreign intelligence agencies to help trace Abdulazeez&rsquo;s movements abroad. Analysts will trace his activity on social media, officials said.
