Arizona congresswoman and Cornell alum Gabrielle Giffords was shot outside of a supermarket earlier today. Though Giffords appeared to be the intended target, six others were actually killed. She was holding a “Congress on Your Corner” event where constituents were given the opportunity to talk to her directly.
Giffords is currently in critical condition after surgery conducted to remove the bullet. According to medical authorities, she appears to be in recovery at the present time.
