ASSASSINATION ATTEMPT: President Trump Hit By Gunfire at MAGA Rally, Rushed Away By Secret Service
Shots were fired during Donald Trump’s MAGA rally in Butler, Pennsylvania, prompting Secret Service agents to rush the former president away from the podium and offsite as he was seen bleeding from his ear.
Ten minutes into his speech, Trump was speaking about his America First plan when what sounded like six or seven shots rang out, at which point Trump quickly behind the podium and dozens of people in the crowd were seen taking to the ground.
Trump appears to have been hit in the ear, and he was seen pumping his fist to the crowd as Secret Service flanked him before rushing him offstage.
Right Side Broadcasting is reporting on the scene, where Secret Service is prompting attendees to vacate the area.
DEVELOPING…Shooter found dead on rooftop with vantage point to stage.
Secret Service tasks counter assault teams to cover ALL vantage points — rooftops most obvious.
Counter assault teams are outsourced professionals. Unlikely they make these mistakes, even “B” team tasked to cover Trump.
Glaring error or intentional overlook. Confirmed with former CA team organizer and trainer.
