Scalise undergoes surgery for 'deep tissue infection'
By Max Greenwood - 07/13/17 04:31 PM EDT

House Majority Whip Steve Scalise (R-La.) on Thursday underwent an operation to manage a deep-tissue infection related to the gunshot wound he sustained last month.

The No. 3 House Republican is in fair condition and will remain at MedStar Washington Hospital Center for monitoring, according to a statement from his office.

"Congressman Steve Scalise remains hospitalized at MedStar Washington Hospital Center," the statement read. "Today, he underwent surgery for the management of deep tissue infection related to his bullet wounds. He is in fair condition, and will require careful monitoring to see if and when further interventions are necessary."
