It seems he fired from his vehicle after getting in range of the WH. It’s fortunate some other person outside wasn’t hit.

It seems he fired from his vehicle after getting in range of the WH.

He fired from 700 yards away which is outside the effective range of an AK 47 (or its copies).

On the night of the shooting, the president was traveling and not in the White House. According to a law-enforcement official, a witness in an airport shuttle van saw a Honda Accord stop on Constitution Avenue and fire a burst of shots out the passenger window toward the White House more than 700 yards away. The car sped away and was abandoned several blocks down the road. Authorities said Mr. Ortega-Hernandez is one of the listed owners of the car.
