A West Virginia National Guard member who was shot last week in a brazen daytime attack in Washington, D.C., remains in serious condition but has shown positive signs by giving a thumbs-up that he could hear a nurse's question and wiggling his toes, Gov. Patrick Morrisey said Monday.

Morrisey said the family of 24-year-old U.S. Air Force Staff Sgt. Andrew Wolfe continues to ask the public to pray for him.

"Andrew is still fighting for his life," Morrisey said. "Andrew needs prayers."

The other National Guard member who was shot, 20-year-old U.S. Army Specialist Sarah Beckstrom, later died. Morrisey said he could not yet share details of any funeral arrangements and wants to respect her family's wishes.

Beckstrom and Wolfe were shot just blocks from the White House while deployed as part of President Donald Trump’s crime-fighting mission that federalized D.C. police.

A 29-year-old Afghan national charged in the shooting faces one count of first-degree murder and two counts of assault with intent to kill while armed.

The shooting prompted the Trump administration to halt all asylum decisions and pause issuing visas for people traveling on Afghan passports.
