FBI Searched DC Shooting Suspect’s Home in Washington State, Location in California

THE DAILY CALLER NEWS FOUNDATION—FBI Director Kash Patel said during a Thursday press conference that the agency has searched the Washington state home of a gunman accused of ambushing two National Guardsmen and a location in San Diego, California. West Virginia National Guardsmen Andrew Wolfe and Sarah Beckstrom were allegedly shot with a Smith and Wesson revolver at the Farragut West Metro Station in Washington, D.C., by Rahmanullah Lakanwal, an Afghan national who entered the United States in September 2021. Patel provided reporters an update on how the investigation was proceeding. Full update from this morning’s press conference. The @FBI is investigating yesterday’s attack on our National Guard members as an act of terrorism. As we speak, our teams continue to work around the clock following every lead and turning over every stone. We will provide updates… pic.twitter.com/dTf5V6HMCm— FBI Director Kash Patel (@FBIDirectorKash) November 27, 2025 “Partnering with the D.C. United States attorney’s office, we have also executed multiple, multiple search warrants to include the subject’s last known residence, which is in the state of Washington,” Patel said. “The search warrant was executed on that house last night or early this morning and it’s an ongoing process. All the individuals found in the house have been interviewed and some interviews remain ongoing.” “We will not stop until we interview anyone and everyone associated with the subject, the house and every piece of his life,” Patel continued. “There’s also subject interviews, relations conducted in San Diego pursuant to our ongoing investigation. So as the judge noted, this is a coast-to-coast investigation being led right here in Washington D.C.” Lakanwal allegedly shouted “Allahu akbar!” before opening fire on the National Guardsmen, journalist Julio Rojas reported. One National Guardsman who was on the scene who didn’t have a firearm stabbed Lakanwal with a pocketknife, while another fired multiple shots that struck the suspected gunman, according to Rojas. “I spoke to [CIA Director] John Ratcliffe and [Secretary of War] Pete Hegseth. We’re investigating his background to include any known associates that are either overseas or here in the United States of America. That’s what a broad-based international terrorism investigation looks like,” Patel told reporters. Originally published by The Daily Caller News Foundation.
