Donald Trump’s Rally Interrupted by Gunshots: What Happened?
The atmosphere was charged with tension during Donald Trump’s last rally before the Republican National Convention as sudden gunshots rang through the crowd in Butler, Pennsylvania.
Trump’s campaign quickly reassured the public that he was unharmed after being swiftly escorted off the stage by security personnel. The incident occurred as Trump was showcasing a chart of border crossing numbers to the audience.
Despite the chaos and confusion, Trump emerged back on stage, visibly shaken but determined, as the crowd cheered and he pumped his fist in defiance.

Tragically, one spectator lost their life, and two others sustained critical injuries.
The incident serves as a stark reminder of the heightened tensions and security risks surrounding political events, especially during the lead-up to major conventions and elections. Stay tuned for more updates on this developing story.
