A life-threatening attack on former US president and Republican presidential nominee Donald Trump during his rally in Pennsylvania shocked the entire nation on Saturday.
Cutting across party lines, leaders strongly condemned the attack on Trump while he was addressing an election rally in Butler, which is about 56 km north of Pittsburgh in Pennsylvania.
The Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI) and other federal law enforcement agencies rushed to the scene, while the Secret Service escorted him to a safe place. He was seen raising his fists to the supporters while being escorted out.
Blood was seen on Trump's face and ear as he reached toward his neck with his right hand. Multiple media reports said that several gunshots were heard while the former president was addressing the rally.
Both the Secret Service and his spokesperson said Trump was fine.
He is fine and is being checked out at a local medical facility, Steven Cheung, Trump spokesperson said in a statement.
