Trump to visit grief-stricken El Paso and Dayton
1 / 10APTOPIX Texas Mall ShootingPeople comfort each other during a vigil for victims of Saturday's mass shooting at a shopping complex Sunday, Aug. 4, 2019, in El Paso, Texas. EL PASO, Texas — The Texas border city jolted by a weekend massacre at a Walmart absorbed more grief Monday as the death toll climbed to 22 and prepared for a visit from President Donald Trump over anger from El Paso residents and local Democratic leaders who say he isn't welcome and should stay away.
Acknowledging the backlash in the community, Margo added:"I'm already getting the emails and the phone calls." Other residents in the largely Latino city of 700,000 said Monday that Trump's rhetoric is difficult for them to stomach. Story continuesAuthorities at the news conference in El Paso also revealed details about the suspect's whereabouts before the shooting — some of the first to come out regarding his movements. Police Chief Greg Allen said Crusius drove more than 10 hours from the Dallas area before arriving in El Paso. He said Crusius got lost in a neighborhood before ending up at Walmart"because, we understand, he was hungry." Allen didn't elaborate.
The hospital did not release the names or ages of the two patients who died, but hospital officials described one as an elderly woman.
