Trump was swiftly escorted off stage, and the rally was abruptly concluded. According to Lt. Col. George Bivens of the Pennsylvania State Police, the investigation is ongoing, with the PSP leading the homicide investigation and the FBI focusing on the assassination attempt.

In a Truth Social post, Trump expressed gratitude to the agents who protected him and extended his condolences to the victims' families. He also recounted the incident, noting he was grazed by a bullet.

The Republican National Convention in Milwaukee, Wis., set to commence Monday, will proceed as planned despite the incident. Secret Service spokesman Anthony Guglielmi detailed the event, noting that the shooter fired multiple shots from an elevated position outside the rally venue.

President Biden condemned the violence, emphasizing that such acts have no place in America. Biden, who was in Delaware at the time, spoke to Trump and is expected to receive further briefings from homeland security and law enforcement officials.
