US Investigators now believe the Afghan immigrant accused of ambushing National Guard members in Washington, D.C.

was not radicalized until after he came to the United States.

Relative clauses (Restrictive vs. nonrestrictive)

That's according to Homeland Security Secretary Kristi Noem, who spoke to television news programs on Sunday.

Authorities accused 29 year old Rahmanullah Lakhanwal of shooting two members of the National Guard just blocks from the White House last week.

The attack killed Sarah Beckstrom and critically wounded her fellow guardsman Andrew Wolfe, Noem told NBC News investigators believed Laconwell was radicalized after settling in Washington state and said they wanted to talk to those who interacted with him, including his family members.

Laconwell entered the US in 2021 as part of the Biden administration's mass evacuation of AFGHANS who aided U.S.

forces, a government file reviewed by Reuters showed.

Laconwell was granted asylum in April by Trump's administration.

At Webster County High School, Sarah was the kind of student teachers hoped for.

I At a memorial service in West Virginia on Saturday, people in the tight knit communities of Webster county and Somerville county gathered to honor Beckstrom and bid her farewell.

Greg Burleson is the principal of Somerton High School.

She chose a path of honor and responsibility, and she did it with humility and grace.

After Wednesday's attack, the Trump administration took steps to clamp down on some legal immigration, including a freeze on processing all asylum applications.

Noem said on Sunday that immigration officials would consider deporting people with active asylum cases if it was warranted.
