Blood was seen on Trump’s face and ear as he reached together with his proper hand towards his neck. Multiple media experiences stated that a number of gunshots have been heard whereas Trump was addressing the rally.
The Secret Service, which instantly escorted the previous president out and took him to a safer place, stated he was secure.

“An incident occurred the evening of July 13 at a Trump rally in Pennsylvania. The Secret Service has implemented protective measures and the former President is safe. This is now an active Secret Service investigation and further information will be released when available,” Secret Service Spokesperson Anthony Guglielmi stated.
A legislation enforcement supply informed Fox News that the shooter is dead and two extra casualties are being taken to Pittsburgh hospital.

“President Trump thanks law enforcement and first responders for their quick action during this heinous act,” Cheung stated.
“I am horrified by what happened at the Trump rally in Pennsylvania and relieved that former President Trump is safe. Political violence has no place in our country,” Senate Majority Leader Chuck Schumer stated.
“This should horrify every freedom loving American. Violence against presidential candidates must never be normalised. We are lifting up Donald Trump, the entire Trump family, and all in attendance in prayer,” former Republican presidential candidate Nikki Haley stated.
