Several people were hit by gunfire in Washington, near the White House. This was reported by CNN, according to which among those hit by gunfire were at least two members of the National Guard. The Metropolitan Police wrote in X that they were at the scene of a shooting in the area and urged the public to avoid the area. The police also confirmed that a suspect had been arrested. “The area has been made secure. A suspect is in custody,” wrote the Metropolitan Police in X.
“The animal that shot two members of the National Guard, both of whom were seriously injured and are now hospitalized in two separate hospitals, was also seriously injured, but despite everything, the price paid was very high.” President Donald Trump wrote it in Truth.
The National Guard has not commented on the matter and the background to the shooting remains unclear. For months, National Guard troops from several states have been in Washington, DC, as part of President Donald Trump’s campaign against crime in the capital, which has since expanded to other cities across the country. The President flew to Florida today for Thanksgiving.
