Twenty people were killed and more than two dozen injured in a shooting Saturday in a busy shopping area in the Texas border town of El Paso, the state's governor said.
On Saturday evening, the president tweeted: "Today’s shooting in El Paso, Texas was not only tragic, it was an act of cowardice. I know that I stand with everyone in this Country to condemn today’s hateful act. There are no reasons or excuses that will ever justify killing innocent people.... ....Melania and I send our heartfelt thoughts and prayers to the great people of Texas."
Beto O'Rourke, the Democratic presidential candidate and former Texas congressman, arrived back in his hometown of El Paso on Saturday evening after leaving a campaign event in Las Vegas following news of the shooting. He said police also had found a manifesto that may have been written by Crusius and posted online — one reason it was being investigated as a hate crime. The FBI has also opened a domestic terrorism investigation, CNN reported.
