Trump Injured in Shooting Incident during Election Rally in Pennsylvania (Video)

A campaign rally for former President Donald Trump in Pennsylvania on Saturday witnessed shots being fired.

Video footage showed members of the Secret Service and police escorting Trump to a car while he raised his fist in the air.

The former US President was seen with blood staining his right ear while he was surrounded by security men who took him out from behind the podium.

CNN confirmed in breaking news that “Trump was injured in a shooting incident at an election rally in Pennsylvania.”

Trump said later in a post on Truth Social that his ear was grazed by a bullet

Later, a Fox News correspondent, citing the White House, said: “President Biden was informed of the shooting incident at a Trump campaign rally.”

The White House then issued a brief statement that said: “Biden received preliminary information about the shooting incident at a Trump election rally.”

The US Secret Service announced that it had “opened an investigation into the shooting incident, and more information will be released when it becomes available.”

A CNN correspondent reported, quoting a Trump spokesman, that: “Trump is fine and is currently being examined at a local medical center.”

This was Trump's last rally before the Republican Convention, during which he is scheduled to be officially named as the Republican Party's nominee to face his Democratic rival, Joe Biden, in the November elections.
