Suspect Who Shouted “Allahu Akbar” While Shooting National Guardsmen Identified


Suspect Who Shouted “Allahu Akbar” While Shooting National Guardsmen Identified as Illegal Migrant,

 Rahmanullah Lakanwal


Officials say Lakanwal entered the United States in 2021 during the Biden administration. Multiple reports indicate he arrived under “Operation Allies Welcome,” the federal resettlement program established after the U.S. withdrawal from Afghanistan. He was reportedly permitted entry on a visa and is believed to have overstayed that visa.

Journalist Julio Rojas reports that witnesses heard Lakanwal yell “Allahu akbar!” moments before he opened fire with a revolver at National Guard personnel stationed in the area, critically injuring two Guardsmen. Both victims remain hospitalized and are fighting for their lives.
