Holocaust Museum Shooting
An 89-year-old white supremacist opened fire at the crowded Holocaust Museum in Washington DC today injuring one person. The closest security guard to the door was hit after the others returned fire and successfully detained the suspected shooter, James Von Brunn. President Obama reacted immediately to the attack saying he is deeply saddened by the incident and hopes for recovery of the victims.
Young students on field trips were also at the museum, but were evacuated immediately after hearing the gunshots. The security guard who was shot by Von Brunn is currently in stable condition. Von Brunn, however, was rushed to the hospital after being by hit by the security guards return fire.
UPDATE: James Von Brunn has just been pronounced dead after receiving gun shot wounds from the museum’s security guards.
