Alexandria Police Chief Mike Brown announced Wednesday that the FBI will take over the investigation into a shooting at a Republican congressional baseball practice that injured five people.

“Because this case involves the assault on a federal officer, the Federal Bureau of Investigation will be taking over the investigation,” Brown said. “We are embedded and assisting the FBI along with other agencies that are trying to deal with this particular scene and this investigation of this incident.”
