On July 13, during a campaign rally at the Butler Farm Show grounds in Pennsylvania, former President Donald Trump was abruptly evacuated after nearby gunfire. Despite a minor injury to his right ear, Trump is in stable condition. The shooter, whose identity remains undisclosed, was confirmed dead at the scene.
At approximately 6:10 PM, gunshots interrupted Trump's speech, prompting immediate action from his security team. Trump briefly took cover beneath the podium before being escorted off stage. Witnesses saw Trump raise a fist to supporters as he was led away, with television footage showing blood near his ear.
The Washington Post confirmed that a bullet grazed Trump's ear, resulting in a minor injury. Trump's campaign team later assured the public of his good health and ongoing examination at a local medical facility.
The Secret Service issued a statement confirming the swift implementation of protective measures and ongoing investigation into the incident. Further details will be disclosed as they become available.
