Plans by President Donald Trump to visit the Shell Chemical ethane cracker plant in Potter Township, Beaver County, on Thursday have been postponed, according to a spokeswoman from U.S. Rep. Mike Kelly’s, R-16th, office.

The spokeswoman said the visit to the plant was canceled due to the two mass shootings that took place over the weekend.

The spokeswoman did not know when the visit would be rescheduled.
