Despite a shocking incident of violence at the Republican National Convention in Milwaukee, the spirit of unity and resilience among the attendees remains unbroken. A shooting occurred just outside the security perimeter, throwing the convention into a state of sorrow and concern. The victim, as reported by The Columbus Dispatch, was an out-of-town police officer. This tragedy unfolded near Fiserv Forum, where the RNC is being held.
The victim was known as ‘Jehovah’, a beloved member of the local community who resided in a tent camp and owned a pit bull named Isis. His tragic death, which took place less than a mile from the RNC’s security perimeter, sent waves of fear and apprehension among those present at the convention.
However, in the face of adversity, the Fraternal Order of Police Lodge #9 representing Columbus, Ohio officers – who were bolstering security at the RNC – reassured everyone that no officers were injured during the incident. They also confirmed that their President Brian Steel had reached out to Wisconsin State F.O.P. President Ryan Windorff to extend support.

This unfortunate event comes on the heels of an assassination attempt on former President Donald Trump in Butler, Pennsylvania. Yet, despite such threats and apparent animosity towards him, Trump remains undeterred. In fact, his campaign celebrated the announcement of Ohio GOP Sen. J.D. Vance as his vice presidential nominee for the upcoming November elections.
This incident highlights more than ever the crucial role of law enforcement in maintaining peace and safety. The willingness of Columbus officers and those from other jurisdictions to travel and provide additional security for this event speaks volumes about their dedication and commitment.

As the RNC continues through Thursday, this tragic incident has not dampened the enthusiasm and support for President Trump and his campaign. Despite adversity, Trump and his team display remarkable resilience, continuing their mission to make America safe and prosperous again. This shooting will not deter them from their path towards victory in November.
