Wounded US congressman Scalise ‘critical’ after surgery, hospital says

Republican lawmaker Steve Scalise, one of five people shot by a gunman during early morning baseball practice near Washington DC on Wednesday, remained in “critical condition” following surgery, the hospital said.

“Rep. Scalise was critically injured and remains in critical condition,” said MedStar Washington Hospital in a statement via Twitter. Earlier in the day his condition had been described as “stable,” and he had spoken by telephone with his wife.
