Rep. Cori Bush (D-MO) was unharmed when her parked car was hit by gunfire over the weekend in the St. Louis area.
“I’m touched by everyone who has reached out,” Bush said in a statement. “Like far too many of us in St. Louis, experiencing gun violence is all too familiar. Thankfully no one was harmed. But any act of gun violence shakes your soul. No one should have to fear for their safety here in St. Louis and that is exactly why our movement is working every day to invest in our communities, eradicate the root causes of gun violence, and keep every neighborhood safe.”
It wasn’t clear exactly where the Congresswoman’s car was when it was hit or if her vehicle was targeted. The incident happened Saturday morning.
According to KSDK, there was ‘evidence that someone had tampered with the door handles of other cars in the vicinity.’
