"I WASN'T ON THE BALLOT!" Trump receives a "briefing" at Mar-a-Lago RE: 2 National Guard members shot near the W.H.

Two National Guard members were shot Wednesday near the White House, Homeland Security Kristi Noem said.

The Metropolitan Police Department confirmed a shooting a few blocks from the White House and said a suspect was in custody. A District of Columbia EMS official said paramedics treated three gunshot victims at the scene, and that all three were taken to hospitals.

The Guard members were in critical condition, The Associated Press reported, citing an anonymous law enforcement official.

President Donald Trump was in Florida, but the White House said it was on an “enhanced security posture.” Press secretary Karoline Leavitt said the president had been briefed on the situation.
