A shooting occurred Saturday during an event for Republican candidate Donald Trump in Pennsylvania. Images posted on social media showed the politician touching his ear and then hiding behind the podium where he was giving a powerful speech.
The former president, the favorite in the polls to occupy the White House, was seen with blood on his right ear.
Many people began to scream and crouch down, while security agents immediately ran towards the former president to protect him. They eventually managed to get him out of the place, probably injured.
Specifically, the rally was taking place in the town of Butler.
