Authorities raid Elias Rodriguez's Chicago apartment after he allegedly killed two Israeli embassy workers outside a Jewish museum in Washington, D.C.
Several Jewish organizations and Chicago officials held a press conference Friday to condemn the fatal shooting of Yaron Lischinsky and Sarah Milgrim, Israeli Embassy staffers, on Wednesday night as they were leaving an event at a Jewish museum.
Rabbi Brant Rosen of Tzedek Chicago said he did not know whether the shooting outside the Capital Jewish Museum was antisemitic.

The suspect in an alleged targeted antisemitic deadly shooting in the nation's capital flew with his alleged murder weapon out of O'Hare airport Wednesday, court documents show.
"Because of what happened in Washington, D.C., every Jewish organization, every Jewish institution is revisiting their security plans, is reviewing their protocols," said Daniel Goldwin, chief public affairs officer of the Jewish United Fund.
The suspect faces federal charges that include two counts of murder for the deaths of Sarah Milgrim and Yaron Lischinsky.
