Trump Rushed Off Stage at Rally in Butler, Pennsylvania

During a rally in Butler, Pennsylvania, former President Donald Trump was abruptly whisked off the stage after what appeared to be gunshots were heard in the crowd. Trump was in the midst of presenting a chart displaying border crossing numbers when the bangs rang out, causing a moment of chaos.

Witnesses reported seeing Trump reach for his neck with his right hand as he quickly ducked behind the podium for cover. Blood was later spotted on the side of his face as agents from his protective detail swiftly moved in to secure the area. The crowd erupted in screams while agents attended to Trump on stage.

Despite the alarming situation, Trump managed to regain his composure and stood back up, prompting cheers from the crowd as he defiantly pumped his fist. Following the incident, Trump was escorted away in his motorcade, and his current condition remains undisclosed.

Law enforcement began clearing the area after Trump’s departure, while the US Secret Service and other agencies have refrained from making official statements regarding the incident.
