Two National Guard members were shot just outside the White House complex in downtown Washington on Wednesday afternoon, two people familiar with the situation confirmed.

One of the guardsmen was in critical condition, the people said. By 3 p.m., D.C. police said they had one suspect in custody.

The shooting happened at the corner of 17th and H Streets NW, and three gunshot victims were transported to the hospital, according to D.C. Fire and EMS spokesperson Vito Maggiolo.

“The White House is aware and actively monitoring this tragic situation. The president has been briefed,” White House spokesperson Karoline Leavitt said.

At the corner of 17th and I streets NW, dozens of police cars filled the roads as officers roped off the sidewalk with yellow police tape and onlookers stood watching Farragut Square’s park area. National Guard members stood guarding the park.
