Trump LIVE: US President Trump Confirms The Passing Away Of National Guard Sarah Beckstrom
One of the two National Guard members shot in Washington, D.C., on Wednesday has died, confirmed President Donald Trump. Sarah Beckstrom, aged 20, lost her life due to injuries sustained in the shooting, while Andrew Wolfe, 24, remains in critical condition and is fighting for his life. The incident occurred near Farragut Square shortly after 2 p.m. EST and involved a close-range attack.
The suspect, Rahmanullah Lakanwal, a 29-year-old Afghan national, was apprehended by authorities. President Trump conveyed his condolences to Beckstrom’s family during a Thanksgiving call to US service members and later spoke with her parents. Beckstrom, who hailed from West Virginia, had joined the Army National Guard in June 2023 and volunteered to serve in Washington during the Thanksgiving holiday. West Virginia Senator Jim Justice expressed deep sorrow over her passing and extended prayers for Wolfe’s recovery.
The shooting has raised concerns about security in the capital as both guardsmen were part of a deployment to provide federal law enforcement support during a heightened security period. Authorities continue investigations while the nation mourns the loss of a young soldier serving her country.
