December 1, 2025
West Virginia’s governor says a National Guard member from his state who was shot last week in an attack in Washington, D.C., remains in serious condition but has shown some positive signs. Gov. Patrick Morrisey said Monday that he was told 24-year-old Air Force Staff Sgt. Andrew Wolfe gave a thumbs-up that he could hear a nurse’s question and wiggled his toes. Morrisey says Wolfe is “still fighting for his life” as his family requests prayers. Another National Guard member, 20-year-old Army Spc. Sarah Beckstrom, died after the shooting. They were deployed under President Donald Trump’s crime-fighting plan.
