![]() Suspect charged with murder, aggravated assault “But when they come in like this, particularly because it happened in a health care setting, it resonates more,” he said, adding that the hospital staff is being offered support. “Unfortunately, in this day and age, seeing shooting victims is almost a daily occurrence here,” he said. Jansen noted that “the impact” of this shooting “on the staff is something you can’t imagine.” “They are very grateful for the support and care they’ve received,” he said, however, “the fact that they were in a health care facility just makes it worse.” Jansen said he’s spoken with two of the injured victims. “As of right now everybody is as stable as they can be given the nature of their injuries,” Jansen said. The fourth woman who was shot is in stable condition, he said. The third patient in intensive care is stable and hopefully can move out of the ICU later in the day, he said. Two of those three women are “critical” and will return to the operating room for additional procedures, he said.
