President Donald Trump said he is “praying for” two police officers that were shot in Louisville, Kentucky. The incident occurred as protests were happening in the city over the announcement of the grand jury decision in the Bronna Taylor case.

“Praying for the two police officers that were shot tonight in Louisville, Kentucky,” the president tweeted. “The Federal Government stands behind you and is ready to help.”

The president added that he had spoken to Kentucky‘s governor, Andy Beshear, a Democrat, and that “we are prepared to work together, immediately upon request!”

Louisville’s interim police chief announced late on Wednesday that a suspect was in custody in relation to the shooting of the two officers, both of whom are expected to recover, the chief said.

An hour later, as protests continued, Trump tweeted again saying “Law & Order”. Furthermore, Trump said on Thursday that violence at political protests was “unacceptable“ and should be dealt with swiftly.

“It‘s fine to do that in a peaceful manner,“ he said. “When it gets less than peaceful, as you see all over, that‘s unacceptable. That‘s when law and order is necessary, and that‘s where law enforcement is very important.“

The Louisville Metro Police officers were shot about 30 minutes before the city’s 9 p.m. curfew. One of the cops was shot in the abdomen, below a bullet-proof vest, and was rushed to surgery. The second officer was hit in the thigh.

Before the shooting occurred, Trump also offered sympathy to the family of Taylor.

“I think it‘s a sad thing, and I give my regards to the family of Breonna,“ Trump said outside the White House before heading to a campaign event. “I also think it‘s so sad what is happening with everything about that case — including [to] law enforcement.“

“So many people suffering, so many people needlessly suffering,“ he added. “But with respect to Breonna, we give our regards to the family.“
