The president said he received news of the death just before speaking. “I heard that Sarah Beckstrom of West Virginia, one of the guardsmen that we’re talking about — highly respected, young, magnificent person, started service in June of 2023 outstanding in every way — she’s just passed away, she’s no longer with us. She’s looking down at us right now,” Trump said.

Beckstrom and Wolfe were serving on the D.C. Safe and Beautiful Mission when they were shot around 2:15 p.m. Wednesday, the West Virginia National Guard said in a news release. The shooting occurred less than 24 hours after they were deputized to maintain their status to conduct presence patrols, said a spokesperson for the joint task force investigating the shooting. Wolfe is hospitalized in critical condition. The suspected gunman, Rahmanullah Lakanwal, was also shot and taken to a hospital. He faces three counts of assault with intent to kill while armed and one count of possession of a firearm during a crime of violence. The CIA said that Lakanwal, an Afghan national, worked with U.S. forces during the war in Afghanistan. Wolfe, 24, of Martinsburg, West Virginia, entered service on Feb. 5, 2019, the joint task force said. He is a U.S. Air Force staff sergeant assigned to the Force Support Squadron, 167th Airlift Wing. Beckstrom, of Webster Springs, West Virginia, entered service on June 26, 2023. She was assigned to the 863rd Military Police Company, the 111th Engineer Brigade, and is a U.S. Army specialist. The National Guard said that they had been deployed to D.C. since August after Trump ordered troops to the city as part of his crackdown on crime. Her father, Gary Beckstrom, paid tribute on Facebook writing: “My baby girl has passed to glory. … This has been a horrible tragedy.” Beckstrom’s father previously told The New York Times that she had a “mortal wound” and likely wouldn’t recover. “I’m holding her hand right now,” Gary Beckstrom said. “It’s not going to be a recovery.” Beckstrom’s family did not immediately respond to NBC News’ requests for comment. Jason Wolfe, Wolfe’s father, declined to comment, but added, “Just pray for my son.”
