The former president had just started addressing the crowd when as many as five gunshots were heard. Immediately, Secret Service agents surrounded Trump and escorted him off the stage. Despite what appeared to be blood on his head, Trump raised his arms defiantly as he was led away.

Trump’s speech was interrupted as he criticized the current administration, stating, “And then the worst president in the history of our country took over. And look what happened to our country. Probably 20 million people [came in illegally]. And, you know, that’s a little bit old, that chart… that chart’s a couple of months old. And if you want to really see something that sad, take a look at what happened over…” Trump said before the apparent gunfire rang out.
