Two National Guard soldiers are critically injured after being gunned down in Washington DC, less than two blocks from the White House, in what the city's mayor called a "targeted shooting".
Police said a lone suspect opened fire on the National Guard members on Wednesday afternoon, before being subdued by other National Guard nearby who had heard the gunfire.
The attack prompted the White House to briefly go into lockdown and a temporary flight stoppage at the city's main airport on the eve of Thanksgiving.
