Two People Shot Outside Rep. Lee Zeldin's Home

Two individuals were shot outside U.S. Rep. Lee Zeldin's Long Island home on Sunday according to local authorities and Zeldin, who is also the GOP nominee challenging Democrat Governor Kathy Hochul in November's midterms.

According to the county officials, however, the shooting that took place was "unrelated to the residents" based on the information they had on Sunday.

Suffolk County authorities said that the shooting took place at roughly 2:20 p.m. Sunday. Zeldin confirmed the incident outside of his home in Shirley on Long Island and noted that his twin teenage daughters were home at the time.

"My 16-year-old daughters, Mikayla and Arianna, were at our house doing homework, while my wife, Diana, and I were in the car, having just departed the Bronx Columbus Day Parade in Morris Park," Zeldin said in a statement Sunday afternoon.

"After my daughters heard the gunshots and the screaming, they ran upstairs, locked themselves in the bathroom and immediately called 911," Zeldin added. "They acted very swiftly and smartly every step of the way and Diana and I are extremely proud of them."

Zeldin also said that the two people injured in the incident were "laying down under my front porch" and in "the bushes in front of our porch."

It seems a little too coincidental to be "unrelated to the residents" especially after that other moonbat nutbar tried to stab him a short while ago.

You think Hochul took out a contract on him? wouldn't surprise me.

While I think that is a bit of a stretch, there is this:

As Leah reported at the time, Gov. Hochul took heat for her fiery rhetoric against Zeldin that included publishing the Republican candidate's campaign stop schedule.

Hmm.

As for the happenings, it'd be interesting to learn the backdrop to the story. As in, who was shooting at one another, and why.
Hope the security cameras reveal all the pertinent info.

Do you figure we'll get to hear about it?

then remember she published his shedule and some guy tried to stab or shoot him on stage.

while technically i guess they won't say she set it up...but she did.
