Shot in Alexandria, VA - while they were practicing for some kind of annual baseball game that he plays in with other Congressmen...

...Shot in hip. Fifty shots fired.

According to the information Steve Doocy received from someone that he is expected to be okay. Apparently, his security detail shot the guy and killed the gunman. Accounts from Senator Mike Lee - to Doocy via text message.

This is freaking crazy.

You have to reserve those fields, but who knows if this is random or not. 6am in the morning!!

I didn't see Bann's post before I started a thread. This was a planned exercise - not spontaneous. No way it was random.

First reports are not always accurate...

Gunman wasn't killed, but it was reported in the first minutes...

:yay:
My post was within minutes of FNC reporting it live. So, I was more or less wondering if the shooting was random.

I didn't think it was random, myself. The practice was planned, as it turns out, another congressperson reported having been asked minutes before leaving whether the players were Republicans or Democrats. He is an eyewitness to the shooter or accomplice, at least.

I will wait for more information on the shooter. I have an idea of this person's motive, but will wait for the report to come out.

And no, I'm not thinking "Muslim".

A choice of words. Could have been a mission, but witnesses say dude appeared to be in jogging/exercise gear, so.......:buddies:

Ah. So, it appears to be planned rather than random. Does this imply the shooter was targeting politicians in general or a specific party? Or did the person just decide he was going to shoot some people - didn't care who? And what better place than an open field.
