A new witness video has surfaced showing the moments of a horrific shooting involving members of the U.S. National Guard near Washington, D.C.
The footage captured from across the street details how Afghan national Rahmanullah Lakanwal opened fire on U.S. soldiers following an altercation with civilians. According to reports accompanying the video, Lakanwal entered the country under a program related to events in Afghanistan during the withdrawal period and later overstayed his visa. Records show he was previously employed by a CIA-associated security force within the Afghan government.
Law enforcement sources have confirmed that one victim is identified as a member of the National Guard who succumbed to injuries, while another National Guardsman remains critically injured.
This incident underscores the complexities surrounding recent immigration changes and national security concerns.
