Ohio congressman says FBI called 2017 baseball shooting targeting GOP 'suicide by cop,' demands new probe
Fox News
One of the Republican congressmen who survived an attempted mass shooting at a baseball field in 2017 is demanding the FBI reassess the attack after he revealed during a hearing last week that the bureau had designated the incident a “suicide by cop.”
The gunman, James Hodgkinson, fired well over 100 rounds at the congressmen, their aides and others present on the ballfield. He had asked whether the ballplayers were Democrats or Republicans before opening fire and was carrying a list of GOP lawmakers and their physical descriptions. The GOP team was there practicing for an annual charity baseball game in which the two parties had squared off annually since 1909.More Related News
