But is shooter dead or alive?

House Majority Whip Steve Scalise and multiple other people were shot at a congressional baseball practice in Virginia.

Scalise was shot in the hit and at least one other aide was also hit in the chest by a gunman with a rifle.

Sen. Mike Lee (R-UT) said the gunman was shot dead. He also said a staffer used a belt as a tourniquet to stop Scalise’s bleeding.

The shots were reported on East Monroe Street in Del Ray, Alexandria police said on Twitter at 7:30 a.m. The location was near a YMCA.

Stay with Fox News for more.

Let’s not jump to any conclusions. Could have nothing to do with Democrat comedians joking about beheading Trump, or Democrat actors pretending to stab Trump to death in Central Park.

Just got a report from local radio that already tweets are appearing from radicals that Republicans deserved it.

Many believe that a civil war is coming.

Press blames Trump and right wing hate.

Another Senator said he was leaving at about 10 after 7 ans some guy walked up to them and asked if the people playing were GOP or dems.

They thought that kind of odd.
