Senators Blunt Rochester, Coons, Representative McBride statement on Wilmington Hospital shooting

U.S. Senators Lisa Blunt Rochester and Chris Coons and U.S. Representative Sarah McBride (all D-Del.) released the following statement on yesterday’s shooting at Wilmington Hospital: “Today, our hearts break for Wilmington. A gunman turned what should be a place of healing and hope into a place of terror. “Our doctors, nurses, and support staff are the best of Delaware. They hold us together in our darkest hours. Today, it is on us to be strong for them in their time of pain and grief. Our hearts are with the families of the victims and the Wilmington Hospital community. “We’re grateful to the many police officers and first responders who rushed to the scene and captured the suspect. This is the second time in less than a year that Delawareans working to serve others have faced targeted gun violence. We have to address gun violence. We cannot become numb to this.”
