WASHINGTON Nike Air VaporMax Baratas , June 21 (Xinhua) -- The gunman who shot and wounded U.S. House Republican Whip Steve Scalise and four others at a congressional baseball practice field acted alone, the FBI said Wednesday.
James T. Hodgkinson, who died from injuries after the shooting, did not have any ties to terrorism, Tim Slater, head of the Washington FBI office Nike Air Max 97 Baratas , said at a news conference.
Scalise was seriously wounded in the shooting and has undergone several surgeries and remains hospitalized, local media reported.
Hodgkinson, a 66-year-old white male from Illinois, opened a barrage of gunfire on June 14 at a congressional baseball practice field in Alexandria, Virginia. He was wounded in the gun battle with police and died later on the day.
Five people were wounded during the shooting, including Scalise Nike Air Max 90 Ultra 2.0 Flyknit Baratas , a House staffer, a lobbyist for Tyson Foods and two Capitol police officers.
The gunman turned out to be an unemployed home inspector with a deep animus toward President Donald Trump and other Republicans. He volunteered for Democrat Bernie Sanders' presidential campaign last year.
A Facebook page believed to belong to Hodgkinson includes pictures of Sanders and rants against Trump and Republicans. One of his posts read: ""Trump is a Traitor. Trump Has Destroyed Our Democracy. It's Time to Destroy Trump & Co.""
Sanders immediately denounced the shooter's actions on the day.

" Bon-chan, a 19 year old male African spurred tortoise weighing about 70 kg, and his owner Hisao Mitani go out for a walk in Tokyo, on June 10, 2015
A huge reptile is on the prowl through Tokyo's streets -- but unlike Godzilla Nike Air Max TN Mujer Baratas , who stomped across Japan's capital in a blaze of destructive energy, Bon-chan the giant tortoise isn't doing anything very quickly.
The metre- (3-feet-) long African spurred tortoise, which tips the scales at 70 kilogrammes (150 pounds), is a regular sight on the streets of Tokyo's Tsukishima district, as he and owner Hisao Mitani take their snail-paced daily walk.
"My wife just fell in love with him when she saw him at a pet shop, so she brought him home Nike Air Max TN Hombre Baratas ," Mitani, who runs a funeral home, told AFP.
That was 20 years ago, when Bon-chan was small enough to fit into the palm of your hand.
"I sort of knew he would become a good size tortoise but did not think he would be this big."
And like Godzilla, Bon-chan can also stop traffic -- though generally it is so motorists can take a look at him, rather than because he has crushed their vehicles.
While his fictional forerunner fed -- in some incarnations -- on nuclear power plants Nike Air Max TN Baratas , Bon-chan prefers cabbage and carrots, gently taking them out of the hands of children who rush to greet him.
The tortoise lives in a pen at Mitani's funeral home, where he greets callers.
"Some people may say it's absurd to keep such a big tortoise at the entrance of a funeral service. But even in their time of sadness, people smile when they see him, so I don't think it's a bad idea to have him," said the undertaker.
Bon-chan's size -- and the fact that Mitani dresses him in a frilly coat during the chillier months -- have made him quite a celebrity in the neighbourhood.
Tortoises are symbols of longevity in Japan Nike Air Max 95 Mujer Baratas , where local myth says they can live for 10,000 years.
That has rubbed off on his owner, who is known in the area as "kame sennin" ("immortal tortoise man"), although Mitani cheerfully admits he's not likely to be here for eternity.
"I hear this kind of reptile lives for about 80 years, so it's certain that I will go before him," said the 62-year-old.

DAMASCUS, Jan. 21 (Xinhua) -- At least 18 civilians have been killed in the Turkish military campaign against Syria's Kurdish-held Afrin enclave in northern Syria, a monitor group reported Sunday.
The Syrian Observatory for Human Rights said the deaths occurred in Afrin and surrounding villages Nike Air Max 95 Baratas , as Turkey started its offensive on Saturday by airstrikes and shelling and commenced its ground incursion on Sunday to drive out the Kurdish forces from border areas between Syria and Turkey.
Kurdish activists said 11 civilians, including six children and women, were killed and 16 others wounded on Sunday in Afrin by the Turkish fire.
The Kurdish People's Protection Units, or YPG, said four of its fighters were killed as well as 10 fighters of the Turkey-backed Free Syrian Army (FSA) since Saturday when the Turkish-backed forces attempted to storm several border villages of Afrin.
An official in the YPG, Mahmoud Bardakhan Nike Air Max 90 KPU Baratas , declared on Sunday the beginning of a "revolutionary campaign against the Turkish enemy" and FSA, which is involved in the Turkish campaign against Afrin.
Kurdish activists said the Kurdish fighters took several FSA fighters as captives during the military showdown in Afrin.
Meanwhile, Kurdish activists said Intense battles raged between the YPG and the Turkish army on the outskirts of the Adama town in the countryside of Afrin after the attempt of the Turkish army to advance int the town.
