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.
