Monday morning, President Donald Trump addressed the country from the White House following two mass shootings over the weekend, one in El Paso, Texas, and a second in Dayton, Ohio.

During the speech, the president implored lawmakers to tighten background checks, among other measures, in an effort to curb an epidemic of gun violence in the United States, while applauding the efforts of local law enforcement, who have been credited with stopping both events quickly before more lives could be lost.

At the end of the speech, however, President Trump seems to imply that Toledo was also the site of a mass shooting when he said, "may God bless the memory of those who perished in Toledo."

For the record, and as far as 13abc is able to confirm, there have been no mass shootings in the city in recent days.

In a statement provided to the media, Toledo mayor Wade Kapszukiewicz said, “It’s pretty obvious the President misspoke this morning, and that happens to all of us from time to time. Nevertheless, Toledo is happy to accept his prayers, even if they were meant for Dayton.

As Mayor, my prayer is that our leaders in Washington finally summon the courage to do something — frankly, anything — to stop the senseless mass slaughter that continues to occur in our country.

We remain the only country on Planet Earth where mass shootings continue to happen on a regular basis. This doesn’t happen frequently in other parts of the world. Why do we allow it to happen here?

We are the greatest nation on earth, and we can do anything when we put our minds to it. Americans are desperate for a solution. If only our leaders in Washington felt the same urgency."

The president isn't the only one getting his locations confused. Former Vice President and current presidential candidate, Joe Biden, also received some backlash following his own comments during a fundraiser this weekend. According to a report from

, citing a pool report, Biden mistakenly refered to "the tragic events in Houston today and also in Michigan the day before." He later corrected himself.
