Two people were shot outside the Long Island home of GOP gubernatorial candidate Rep. Lee Zeldin on Sunday while his teenage twin daughters were at home, he confirmed to The Post.
“My daughters Mikayla and Arianna were doing homework on the first floor,” said Zeldin, who was not home at the time. “They heard the shots. Boom! They went upstairs and locked themselves in the bathroom.
“They’re freaked out,” the congressman said.
The Suffolk County pol, who is running on a tough-on-crime platform, said the two people who were shot were taken to Long Island Community Hospital.
“I don’t know who was shot,” Zeldin said, adding that he is still awaiting details.
He said his front porch, where he was interviewed by The Post on Saturday, “is now part of the crime scene.
“The local police have cordoned off the area,” he said.
Zeldin’s twins, 16, called 911 from the home around 2:20 p.m., police said.

yep, and a few horrific crimes in the vicinity of Babylon
She’s an absolute psychopath, she’s Hillary 2.0 In just one year in office she’s managed to have 3 blatant acts of corruption, she refuses to do anything about crime, she refuses to debate Zeldin, and this is DURING AN ELECTION YEAR!! Imagine what she’s going to like if she wins!
Suffolk was always a middle-class area. Safe and clean.
Strange and creepy and but not surprising:
“Detectives are investigating the shooting as gang-related and were still looking for the gunman or gunmen, according to a law enforcement source.”
The problem is Hochul is the first female Gov. of New York and you know the DemoMarxists, to them that’s more important than anything. They don’t give a damn how bad someone is in office, only that they fulfill the “woke” agenda.
Yes, Lee Zeldon was attacked by a deranged Democrat at one of his campaign events.
Are there a lot stupid people in Arizona besides you?
It needs to happen to Hochul, not Zeldin.
He’s running for governor of NY.
I don’t know what his political history is.
Lee Michael Zeldin is an American attorney, politician, and officer in the United States Army Reserve. A Republican, he has represented New York's 1st congressional district in the United States House of Representatives since 2015.
How about the fact that crime is happening in more and more places, doesn't matter where you live anymore.
Traumatized....
Leftist violence and mob violence plus agitating words in Biden and Kamala speeches about “domestic terrorist” people who merely vote Republican, are endangering all of us.
The object of the earlier Scalise shooter was to kill the leadership of the GOP. Just because only one almost died of gunshot wounds doesn’t mean there are other Dems who want to finish the job.
Running for gov of NY for Republicans. Has a more than decent chance to win against Hockle.
Dunno.
Post #44 has a link with some information regarding the investigation.
Have to disagree. People are affected differently when their homes are invaded or in danger. Lack of safety by gunshots heard is an emotional response.
When my wife and I were held at gunpoint in 1998 (by a 20 year old white guy, with about 40 people near a beach in Florida) some were crying and hysterical and others like me were strangely calm. I was able to get my wife to crawl under a parked car to hide as he approached. She said “I’m scared. What good is it to me if he kills you but I live?” I told her “I’m not going to die. I’m going to kill him.”
Three guys and I decided on a plan on how to rush him and get his gun if he came to us. For some reason I was still calm as though watching us from somewhere else. Weird.
The shooter it turned out went to the left, not the right, grabbed a man away from his wife (who screamed and then sobbed) and took him hostage, allowed to get in a car and leave by the many police and deputies who had dropped their weapons. The guy had shot several times around the crowd to terrify them.
He was from Michigan (like us) and had murdered an old woman in cold blood, shooting her in the head through her bathroom window. She had kindly given him a chance to do odd jobs for her small company. He stupidly thought her wealth was at home (she had all her money in the bank as the a-hole found out as he found a paltry $20 at home and $11 in her purse).
His accomplice said: “I seen him smile and then he was laughin’ that he was shootin’ the old lady in the head.”

Scalise has become masterful at hiding and insulting his core constituency. He got the base renaming process started and cannot figure why white male constituents sent him angry e-mails. Done voting for him. He has a libtard and an independent running against him. I will vote for one or the other. He will still win but I would like to see his vote pecentage pushed down in what should be a goper year.
“What town? I was flying out of Islip area airport when flying for Frontier. Nice area.”
He lives in Shirley.
Zelden is a Rockefeller Republican. He is, however, 1000% better than Princess Kathy.
Suffolk County is more “blue collar” than Nassau and has more immigrants from Central America as well
More blue collar than most of Nassau - has attracted a lot of immigrants from Central America over past 25 years or so.
