Who is Dr. Matt Lambert? The alleged gunman in deadly Logan Circle gym shooting

What did you think?

Complaints about mold and ventilation feature in WUSA9's account of the man it identifies as the suspected gunman in Washington's Logan Circle gym shooting.

Reporter Katie Lusso names him as Dr. Matt Wade Lambert, a physician and author. She shows posts from an X account attributed to him describing problems with his housing, including mold and a lack of air conditioning. The report also describes civil litigation in which Lambert sought damages from building management and Vida Fitness. Those complaints do not establish a motive for the shooting.

Later WUSA9 coverage names James Stewart as the man killed and reports that Lambert also died. Four other people were injured. The station says the Logan Circle Vida Fitness location will remain closed until further notice.

The background report drew about 35,000 views in its first eight hours, far beyond the channel's usual start for regular videos. WUSA9's separate shooting update and an interview with a downstairs neighbor also drew unusually large audiences. Its continuing coverage follows the police effort to piece together what happened.
