A shooting near the White House threw Washington into chaos in this account, a moment that unfolded fast enough to rattle even a city accustomed to turmoil. According to the report, the violence erupted around 2:20 p.m. near the entrance of the Farragut West Metro station, just blocks from the Executive Mansion. Two National Guard members were critically wounded, and early information was so tangled that even officials struggled to keep track. West Virginia Governor Patrick Morrisey briefly announced that the Guardsmen had died, only to retract the statement minutes later when it became clear that their conditions were still being assessed. A third victim was mentioned as well, though their identity remained unknown in the swirl of breaking updates.
