President Donald Trump called the shooter of two West Virginia National Guard members an “animal” Wednesday, following the gunfire that rocked the nation’s capital, just blocks from the White House.

Mourners gathered at a West Virginia high school this weekend remembered a National Guard member fatally shot last week as a caring and positive person who wanted to help others.

Beckstrom, along with Staff Sgt. Andrew Wolfe, 24, was shot by Rahmanullah Lakanwal, a 29-year-old Afghan national, on Wednesday in what’s been called an “ambush-style” attack.
