Washington shooter to appear in federal court on April 27

The man who carried out the shooting in Washington is expected to appear in federal court on April 27 for formal charges, US Acting Attorney General Todd Blanche has said.

“I expect he’ll be charged tomorrow morning in federal court with two counts in a complaint. We are not viewing him as cooperating necessarily right now,” Blanche said in an interview with CNN.

He added that additional charges may be brought as the investigation progresses.

Blanche noted that FBI Director Kash Patel is personally leading the investigation, adding that he feels confident and reassured by the work the FBI is carrying out.
