Attempted assassination of James Edwards

On November 11, 2024, Vice President-Elect James Edwards was shot and wounded in San Francisco while stepping out of a cable car by North Korean insurgent Ro Sung-Hoon.

James survived the incident but received major damage in both of his legs that would leave him to walk with a limp for the rest of his term and life.

Before authorities could arrest the perpetrator Ro Sung-Hoon shot himself after being cornered in an alleyway with his Beretta 92FS. Documents involving possible connections to the North Korean government were found on him detailing how the assassination was meant to be a crippling blow to the people of the United States.
