June 14, 20179 yr Rep. Steve Scalise shot during baseball practice | Fox Business Fortunately, Scalise is in Congressional Leadership and had a security detail assigned to him, or else it would have been a congressional blood bath.
June 14, 20179 yr Reports saying three others shot as well. Praying all their injuries are minor. Nearly 50 shots fired before Congressional police brought the shooter down. I'm getting conflicting reports on Twitter as to whether shooter is in custody or dead at the scene.
June 14, 20179 yr Just terrible. Capitol police and an aide of the congressman also shot. Prayers for all.
June 14, 20179 yr I didn't catch the name, but a doctor from Cincinnati provided immediate medical aide to Rep. Scalise. Edit: Ohio Rep. Brad Wenstrup was the doctor that provided aide. Edited June 14, 20179 yr by True blue (and gold)
June 14, 20179 yr Don't have source but heard on tv that shooter specifically asked if this was the Republican baseball team.
June 14, 20179 yr Seems to be a politically motivated nut job. Hopefully a scene like this will motivate people in DC to calm the rhetoric of the sky is falling. Very scary situation and you could hear the trembling in Rand Paul's voice on CNN.
June 14, 20179 yr Don't have source but heard on tv that shooter specifically asked if this was the Republican baseball team. I may of saw the same report. The line I heard was he asked if it was Democrats or Republicans and then proceeded to shoot at a GOP leader.
June 14, 20179 yr I may of saw the same report. The line I heard was he asked if it was Democrats or Republicans and then proceeded to shoot at a GOP leader. I heard that also, but there is some question if it was the shooter that asked or a random person. If it was the shooter, that's pretty bad.
June 14, 20179 yr Pure insanity. I just don't understand that type of mentality. I don't get it at all. Prayers for all of the victims.
June 14, 20179 yr First a nut job, pseudo comedian pretends to behead the President, then in NYC, Thespians portray the President being murdered as Julius Caesar, now an actual mass shooting possibly targeting the GOP leadership. I guess some just talk the talk when it comes to tolerance.
June 14, 20179 yr His facebook page shows he is a huge Bernie supporter and a declared socialist. Its filled with angry attacks on Trump and the GOP. Politically motivated shooting.
June 14, 20179 yr James Hodgkinson. White male in his 60s. Have we confirmed if he is dead or detained yet? Edit: Trump just said he is dead.
