U.S Secret Service Reacts To Shooting At Trump’s Campaign Rally

The U.S. Secret Service has confirmed that former President Donald Trump is safe following a shooting incident at his campaign rally in Butler, Pennsylvania, on Saturday.

The Secret Service spokesman, Anthony Guglielmi, issued a statement on the event that occurred while Trump was delivering a speech before a crowd of supporters.

“An incident occurred the evening of July 13 at a Trump rally in Pennsylvania,” Guglielmi tweeted.

“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.”

The incident reportedly occurred minutes into Trump’s speech, causing chaos at the event.

In trending social media videos, Trump was seen putting his hand on his right ear after sounds of the gunshots.

The Secret Service agents swiftly surrounded the former president and escorted him off the stage.

Some clips appear to depict blood on the former president’s face and a bleeding ear as he was being led away.

Meanwhile, the Washington Post reports that the Butler County District Attorney, Richard Goldinger, stated that two people were confirmed dead following the incident, including one of the suspected shooters.
