The victims’ family members released a statement saying they are “deeply and profoundly\u00a0affected\u00a0by the recent\u00a0events that took place” after a transgender gunman opened fire on his family at a high school hockey game<\/a> this week in Rhode Island.<\/p>\n

Robert Dorgan, 56, opened fire Monday inside<\/u><\/a> the Dennis M. Lynch Arena in Pawtucket during a hockey game between Coventry and Blackstone Valley schools, killing his ex-wife Rhonda Dorgan and son Aidan Dorgan, before fatally shooting himself, according to Pawtucket Police Chief Tina Goncalves.<\/p>\n

The Dorgan family’s attorneys released a statement Wednesday, as Rhonda’s parents<\/a> \u2013 Linda Dorgan and Gerald Dorgan \u2013 and family friend Thomas Giarrusso remain in the hospital in critical condition.<\/p>\n

“We are reminded that behind every headline is a family experiencing profound pain and loss,” the family<\/a> wrote. “We care\u00a0greatly for\u00a0all\u00a0families\u00a0impacted\u00a0by this\u00a0recent\u00a0tragedy\u00a0and our thoughts are with them.”<\/p>\n

“While there\u00a0are many questions\u00a0being\u00a0asked,\u00a0please know\u00a0we\u00a0are focused on all of those who have been injured\u00a0and\u00a0whose\u00a0lives have been\u00a0forever changed,” they added.<\/p>\n

The Dorgan family was sitting in the bleachers during the shooting, but police said it appeared there was no conversation or confrontation between the suspect and the victims before he opened fire<\/a>.<\/p>\n

Authorities have not yet released a suspected motive.<\/p>\n

Attorneys said the family is cooperating with the\u00a0appropriate authorities\u00a0and\u00a0agencies,\u00a0and asked all questions be referred to legal spokesperson Lawrence J.\u00a0Signore.<\/p>\n

They did not comment on Robert and Rhonda’s two surviving children.<\/p>\n

Signore’s website notes he represents individuals “injured due to someone else\u2019s careless mistakes<\/a>.”<\/p>\n<\/div>\n
