Update
Synagogue shooter Robert Bowers was released from the hospital this morning and is expected to appear in federal court at 1:30 p.m.
U.S. Attorney Scott Brady says federal prosecutors are seeking approval from Attorney General Jeff Sessions, as required by law, to pursue the death penalty.
Brady said multiple search warrants have been issued in the investigation of Bowers, a long-haul trucker who worked as an independent contractor.
An official GoFundMe page has raised more than $490,000 for victims of the Tree of Life shooting in Pittsburgh. The stated goal for the campaign is $1 million. All money raised will be transferred directly to the Tree of Life Congregation.
"This fundraiser is meant to help the congregations with the physical damages on the building and the survivors and the victims' families," the fundraiser reads.
Two Muslim groups have also set up fund-raisers for the victims and their families, raising tens of thousands of dollars thus far.
