Following his injuries from an attempted assassination at a rally on Saturday, Donald Trump has gone home to his residence in New Jersey. Shots were fired during his speech at the Pennsylvania event, causing the crowd to panic and the Secret Service to swarm the former president. After coming out with his face covered in blood, Trump claimed he had been shot in the ear, saying he heard a "whizzing sound" and felt a "bullet ripping through skin."
The shooter, 20-year-old Thomas Matthew Crooks, was shot and killed by the Secret Service, according to the FBI. At the demonstration, one bystander died and two more suffered serious injuries. Before gunfire broke out, a witness told the BBC they observed a man brandishing a rifle climbing on a roof. The assassination attempt has been denounced by President Joe Biden, who has urged all Americans to oppose such "sick" behavior. On camera, Trump—the front-runner for the Republican presidential nomination—drops to the ground, gets back up, and raises his fist to the assembly.
