ABC News shared further:
Frank Loehr, chief financial officer for the Republican Party of Virginia, told reporters that he and other staffers were working inside the office when shots rang out outside.
A woman who had been speaking with two people who had a booth outside the building was brought inside the office bleeding after being shot, he said. The booth was not affiliated with the party.
The woman was conscious and moaning in pain, Loehr said. First responders arrived quickly and took her away, he said.
“Outside of the Richmond Republican Headquarters on East Grace Street where police say that a person was shot. I arrived with blood still on the sidewalk,” WRIR contributor Goad Gatsby wrote.
