National Guardsman Andrew Wolfe still ‘fighting for his life’ after DC shooting

West Virginia National Guardsman Andrew Wolfe was still “fighting for his life” on Saturday, three days after he was shot in an ambush-style attack in Washington, D.C., which also claimed the life of his fellow National Guard officer Sarah Beckstrom.

Appearing on “FOX & Friends Weekend,” West Virginia Gov. Patrick Morrisey said Wolfe remained in “very serious” condition, adding that his family was pleading for prayers.

Morrisey said Wolfe comes from a long line of “folks who have contributed to service — local service and military service — so he’s got a tight-knit group really pulling for him right now.”

Rep. Riley Moore (R-W.Va), appearing on the show earlier in the day, said Wolfe’s father is a deputy sheriff in Berkeley County, and “Andy wanted to follow in those footsteps and serve his nation as a National Guardsman.”

Moore provided few details on Wolfe’s current condition, but said, “Andy is hanging on.” He has undergone at least one surgery since the shooting.

“He’s a fighter, and his family has told me that, time and time again, he is a fighter,” the rep added. “But above all, what they want here is for everybody to continue to pray. I believe in the power of prayer and I can promise you his parents believe in the power of prayer. … Please keep praying.”

Wolfe, a 24-year-old Air Force staff sergeant, had been deployed to the nation’s capital as part of the Trump administration’s efforts to crack down on what it has called rampant crime in major cities across the U.S. He and Beckstrom, a 20-year-old Army specialist, were shot at close range on Wednesday afternoon, just blocks away from the White House.

I am praying, for him, his family and friends. I want this horrible mess to be resolved, and Islam declared unlawful here in the United States, and muslims deported as antithetical to our Judeo/Christian values and beliefs.
