The parents of DC shooting victim Sarah Milgrim were getting ready for bed on Wednesday night when they saw news reports of the shooting at an event for the American Jewish Committee.
Her mother Nancy said she knew her daughter was a fellow at the organization, and immediately called authorities to find out if her daughter was a victim.
After both couldn't offer any information, she said she opened a family locator app and saw her daughter's location at the Capital Jewish Museum, where the shooting had unfolded.
'I pretty much already knew,' she told the New York Times. 'I was hoping to be wrong.'
Nancy Milgrim said her phone then rang, and when she picked up it was Israel's ambassador to the United States, Yechiel Leiter, on the other line.
