Republican members of Congress had gathered at a baseball field in Alexandria to practice for the annual Congressional Baseball Game scheduled for June 15th. This charity game, which pits Democrats and Republicans against each other, has been a tradition since 1909. Horrifically, during practice, a gunman opened fire.

House Majority Whip Steve Scalise (R-LA) was near second base when the gunman shot him in the hip.
People heard him scream and some saw him trying to drag himself to safety. He made it about 15 yards before collapsing.
The shooting, according to multiple reports, lasted over 10 minutes and started right at about 7:15 am.
