Moments after the apparent shooting attempt blood could be seen on the President’s ear as he was surrounded by law enforcement as screams erupted from the crowd in attendance. He then defiantly pumped his fist in the air as security quickly whisked him offstage.

Trump’s team quickly released a statement saying the 45th president was “fine” after the incident in Butler, which is northeast of Pittsburgh.

Even as Trump was driven off, rallygoers stayed low. Some had heard the bullets ricocheting off the grandstand, severing a hydraulic line connecting to the speakers, which began to topple. Others quickly called family or looked on their phones to find out what had happened to the former president.

“Is he all right?” people began to ask. “Is he OK?”

Eventually, people began to trickle out. A small group of about a half-dozen stopped at the fenced area holding the media. “It’s all your fault!” they yelled.

Police and then the Secret Service ushered everyone out. An hour after the shooting the vast field was declared a crime scene, littered with empty plastic water bottles and soggy cardboard containers that once held cheese fries.
