The Trump administration is moving to extend its crackdown on immigration and bring a first-degree murder charge against the suspected gunman in the shooting of two National Guard members following the death of one of the victims.

Jeanine Pirro, the US attorney for the District of Columbia, said the suspected gunman would face new charges after US Army Specialist Sarah Beckstrom, 20, who was shot in Wednesday’s attack near the White House, died.
