The President of the United States has reacted to the serious incident in which two members of the National Guard were shot and severely wounded.
The head of the White House, in a public statement, strongly condemned the attack and promised that the suspected perpetrator “will face the harshest consequences.”
The President expressed full support for the National Guard, the military, and law enforcement, calling them “extraordinary people” who serve the country with great dedication.
“God bless our Great National Guard, and all our military and law enforcement forces. I, as President of the United States, and everyone around this institution, stand with you,” he declared.
The two wounded National Guard members are currently in critical condition, hospitalized in two different medical centers. The suspected attacker is also reported to be seriously injured.
Federal and local authorities continue their investigation to fully clarify the circumstances of the incident.
“The animal who shot the two National Guard members—both in critical condition and now in two different hospitals—is also gravely wounded, but regardless of that, will pay a very heavy price. God bless our Great National Guard and all our Military and Law Enforcement. These are truly great people. I, as President of the United States, and everyone connected to the Office of the Presidency, stand with you!” Trump wrote.
