Republican senators demand DHS to explain why Pensacola shooter was granted a visa

Three Republican senators called on acting Department of Homeland Security Secretary Chad Wolf to explain how the gunman from the shooting in Pensacola, Florida, was granted a visa.

Ahmed Mohammed al Shamrani, a 21-year-old Saudi national, opened fire and killed three at Navy air station in Pensacola, Florida. Saudi authorities reported that they believe Shamrani was radicalized in 2018 during an extended stay in the Middle East. He then returned to the United States to be trained at the Naval base before he turned his weapon on his peers in December.

In a letter to Wolf, Florida Sens. Marco Rubio and Rick Scott joined Sen. Ron Johnson of Wisconsin in demanding more information on the department’s visa vetting system, given that Shamrani was allowed to return to the U.S. after being radicalized.
