WASHINGTON - A gunman acted alone when he shot and wounded a top House Republican and four other people on a northern Virginia baseball field, the FBI said Wednesday.
Tim Slater, who leads the criminal division of the FBI's Washington field office, also said during a news conference that James T. Hodgkinson did not have any ties to terrorism.
Rep. Steve Scalise, 51, the House majority whip, was gravely wounded in the shooting June 14. He has undergone several surgeries and remains hospitalized. His condition has been upgraded to serious.
