The gunman who attempted to breach the ballroom at the White House Correspondents’ Association dinner was likely targeting members of the Trump administration, Acting US Attorney General Todd Blanche said on Sunday. US President Donald Trump was evacuated and is “not injured” after multiple shots were fired during the White House correspondents' dinner on Saturday night. In his first remarks after the security incident, the US president stated that he, First Lady Melania Trump, Vice President JD Vance and other cabinet members were safe.
Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth and Secretary of State Marco Rubio were also at the event and were evacuated.
Authorities involved have stated that the incident occurred outside the ballroom where Trump and guests were seated.
In a statement from the US Secret Service, one suspect is in custody and "alive", contrary to other reports claiming that the alleged shooter was killed.
While the incident is under investigation, witnesses have stated they heard "five to eight shots" being fired in the banquet hall.
The incident occurred during the White House Correspondents' dinner, where hundreds of prominent journalists, celebrities and national leaders were present.
I'm pretty sure there are a few rape victims of his that would have a good argument for killing him.
