President Barack Obama called the shootings "heartbreaking" and asked Americans to pray for the relatives of the victims.
 
"It is incomprehensible to see what happened and the way that individuals who proudly serve our country were treated," Chattanooga mayor Andy Berke said, praising the quick response by law enforcement to prevent further loss of life.

"At this point, we don't...
