President Donald Trump said Thursday that his administration is examining whether to deport the family members of Rahmanullah Lakanwal, the suspect accused of shooting two National Guard members in Washington, D.C.

When asked directly by a reporter whether he intends to remove Lakanwal’s wife and children from the United States, Trump responded, “Well, we’re looking at that right now. We’re looking at the whole situation with family.”

The two West Virginia National Guard members were attacked while deployed in Washington, D.C. Sarah Beckstrom, one of the soldiers shot near the White House , has died, Trump said on Thursday evening. The second soldier, Andrew Wolfe, underwent surgery, though Trump said Thursday that he remains “in bad shape” and is fighting for his life.
