Trump's first statement after the shooting

The US presidential candidate was taken to a medical facility under Secret Service protection after the shooting. Subsequently, Donald Trump's first statement regarding the events in Pennsylvania appeared.

The politician thanked “the US Secret Service and all law enforcement agencies for their quick response.” He also expressed condolences to the families of the victims.

According to the Secret Service, one spectator at the Trump rally was killed and two were seriously injured. They also write that the one who shot was also killed.

It’s incredible that this could happen in our country. At the moment, nothing is known about the shooter; he is dead. I was hit by a bullet, it pierced the upper part of my right ear. I realized that something was wrong, I heard a whistle, shots and immediately felt the bullet tearing the skin. “I started bleeding heavily,” Trump wrote on his social network.

Joe Biden also issued a statement regarding Trump. “Apparently, everything is fine with him,” the US president said, adding that he could not yet call the shooting an assassination attempt because there was little information for this. The investigation continues.
