Former President Trump’s rally on Saturday abruptly ended after gunshots rang out while he was speaking in Butler, Pa.

Gunshots rang out less than 10 minutes into his speech as Trump spoke about immigration. Trump immediately dropped down below the lectern as Secret Service agents swarmed on top of him amid audible screams from the crowd.

Agents led Trump off stage while surrounding his entire body.

Footage showed Trump with blood near his right ear and on his cheek. The Secret Service said in a statement that the former president was safe and the incident was being investigated.

In a statement, Trump’s campaign said he was “fine” and being checked at a medical facility.

President Trump thanks law enforcement and first responders for their quick action during this heinous act. He is fine and is being checked out at a local medical facility. More details will follow,” Trump spokesperson Steven Cheung said in a statement. 

Before he was escorted off stage, Trump could be seen pumping his fist in the air, with the crowd cheering. 

President Biden said in a statement that he had received a briefing on the shooting and was “grateful to hear that [Trump is] safe and doing well.”

“I’m praying for him and his family and for all those who were at the rally, as we await further information,” Biden said in the statement released by the White House.
