Police Chief Tina Goncalves said it appears a family dispute led to the violence. NBC 10's Dan Jaehnig reported, citing a law enforcement source, that the suspect was a father, who may have been dressed in women's clothing, and that he intentionally targeted family members who were at the game.

Ossoff: "Among today's false prophets are the election deniers who indulge this president's obsession with overturning the 2020 election. Hear me when I say this -- they tell a lie so absurd, and therefore so debasing, that the act of telling it proves the teller's total and humiliating submission."
