Statement from Governor Larry Hogan

ANNAPOLIS, MD – Governor Larry Hogan today released the following statement:

“The First Lady and I are immensely saddened by the recent attacks in California. Our deepest prayers are with the victims and their families. Over the next several days, both the U.S. and Maryland State flags will be flown at half-staff in honor of the victims of yesterday’s attacks.

Our national leaders must do everything in their power to keep our country safe from any force that wants to cause us harm. Here in Maryland our security teams and police forces are remaining vigilant and are in contact with federal authorities. We will be aggressive and proactive.”
