众议院多数党党鞭斯卡利斯术后伤势危急
A U.S. congressman shot early Wednesday during practice for a charity baseball game was in critical condition following surgery, with the hospital treating him saying in a statement Wednesday night "he will require additional operations."
Rep. Steve Scalise, who represents the southern state of Louisiana and serves as the House majority whip, was wounded when an attacker armed with a rifle and a handgun fired on Republican lawmakers who were preparing for Thursday's annual game against a team of Democrats.
The gunman, 66-year-old James Hodgkinson of Belleville, Illinois, was wounded by Capitol Police and later died.
Besides Scalise, the shooter also wounded Capitol Police officer Crystal Griner, a congressional aide and a lobbyist.
The attack happened at a park in Alexandria, Virginia, just across the Potomac River from Washington where Thursday's game will be held.
White House spokesman Sean Spicer told a reporter late Wednesday that President Donald Trump would like to attend the game and show his support, but that there was not enough time to put in place necessary Secret Service security protocols.
Trump visited MedStar Washington Hospital Center along with his wife, Melania, Wednesday night to see Scalise and his family, and to meet with Griner and her wife. The president later wrote on Twitter that Scalise is in "very tough shape" but is "a real fighter."
Trump said earlier in remarks at the White House that the shootings are a reminder for all citizens to overcome the political polarization that has gripped Washington and the rest of the nation.
华盛顿特区的一家医院星期三晚上发表声明说，星期三早些时候在参加慈善棒球比赛训练时被射伤的一位国会众议员经过手术，伤势危急，“还需要接受更多的手术”。
国会众议院多数党党鞭，路易斯安那州的国会众议员斯蒂芬·斯卡利斯被一个携带手枪和步枪的袭击者打伤。当时，一些共和党议员正在为一年一度对决民主党人的棒球比赛做准备。
枪手是66岁的詹姆斯·霍奇金森，住在伊利诺伊州贝尔维尔。他被国会警察打伤后致死。
除了斯卡利斯之外，还有国会警察克里斯特尔·格里纳、一名国会助理和一名游说人士受伤。
袭击事件发生在维吉尼亚州亚历山德里亚的一个棒球场，跟星期四举行比赛的首都华盛顿就隔着一条波托马克河。
白宫发言人斯派塞星期三晚上告诉一位记者说，川普总统希望前去观看比赛，以示支持，但是没有足够的时间，按照特勤保安规定进行安排。
川普星期三晚上携夫人梅拉尼亚一同前往医疗之星华盛顿医院看望斯卡利斯众议员及其家人，以及受伤的格里纳和她妻子。川普后来发推说，斯卡利斯“伤势很重”，但他是“真正的斗士。”
川普早些时候在白宫表示，枪击事件提醒所有的公民，要克服撕裂华盛顿和全国各地的政治两极化。
