Trump rally ********* suspect and attendee are *****, Butler County DA says

CBS News 24/7

Live

A suspected gunman who opened ***** during a rally Saturday in Butler, Pennsylvania, for former President Donald Trump is *****, the Butler County District Attorney said.

Butler County District Attorney Richard Goldinger told CBS Pittsburgh that two people are ***** — the gunman and an audience member. No further details were immediately provided. 

Two law enforcement sources also told CBS News that the suspect is *****. Secret service agents did engage the individual, sources said.

Several shots rang out while Trump was speaking on stage. Video showed the former president immediately touch his ear and then crouch to the ground. Some blood could be seen on his face. He was rushed out and the Secret Service later confirmed that he was safe.

Authorities did not immediately disclose if any others were injured. Rep. Mike Kelley of Pennsylvania, who was standing backstage watching Trump speak, told CBS News, “I believe a lady who was next to me was hit, other people were hit.”  

This is a developing story and will be updated.
