Red State ^ | 11/25/2025 Posted on by SeekAndFind We’re learning more about the suspect in the terrorist attack that took place earlier in Washington, D. C., that sent two members of the West Virginia National Guard to the hospital, where they are listed as being in critical condition. The attack, which investigators are describing as a targeted ambush, reportedly took place just blocks from the White House, around 2: 15 pm Eastern time. As we previously reported, D. C. Metro Police Department Executive Assistant Chief Jeff Carroll told reporters during a D. C. presser that “At approximately 2: 15 this afternoon, members of the National Guard were on high visibility patrols in the area of 17th and I Street NW when a suspect came around the corner, raised his arm with the firearm, and discharged at the National Guard members.” SEE ALSO: ‘We Will Never Back Down’: Hegseth Sending Hundreds More National Guard Troops to DC After Shooting As for the suspect, he’s said to be an Afghan national by the name of Rahmanullah Lakanwal, who came here in September 2021 in the aftermath of the disastrous, deadly Afghanistan withdrawal, with a paper trail that points directly to Joe Biden. Lakanwal allegedly yelled, “Allahu akbar!” during the attack: Here’s LE source in D. C. tells me the National Guardsmen shooting suspect is an Afghan national who used a revolver. A National Guardsman, who was not armed with a firearm, used a pocket knife to stab the suspect. Another Guardsman responded to the gunfire and shot the suspect multiple times. The suspect reportedly shouted, “Allahu akbar!” There are also conflicting reports as to the type of visa he came here on and whether he overstayed it: Fox News congressional correspondent Bill Melugin reported: BREAKING: Per multiple federal law enforcement sources, the suspect in custody for the shooting of two National Guard soldiers in DC is an Afghan national who entered the U. S. on 9/8/2021 as part of the Biden admin’s Operation Allies Welcome in the aftermath of the US withdrawal from Afghanistan. I’m told his permission to be in the U. S. expired in September of this year, and he is now in the country illegally. I have a name and DOB but am waiting for further confirmation. blockquote class=”twitter-tweet”> BREAKING: Per multiple federal law enforcement sources, the suspect in custody for the shooting of two National Guard soldiers in DC is an Afghan national who entered the U.
