Donald Trump has been rushed off stage after multiple shots were heard at a rally in Pennsylvania, where the former president was speaking.
Images showed blood on Mr Trump’s face and ear and snipers on the roof near the stage where Mr Trump was standing.
A statement from the Trump campaign […] "He is fine and is being checked out at a local medical facility.
The post has video of the event and immediate aftermath (minimal blood/gore etc)
As of about 9:50 Melbourne time, Reuters and AP are both independently reporting two deaths: a “shooter” and an audience member / rally attendee.
Be skeptical of updates from unvetted sources like social media. Reuters and AP have more if you want something faster than local news.
I have to go life now so there’ll be no more timely edits with new information unless it’s so insane that someone barges in to tell me about it.
I doubt anyone else is coming back to read this other than you if you have notifications on, but Snopes, based on photographic evidence of intact teleprompters and other evidence, is willing to rule the teleprompter glass shard theory as “False”.
They do note the recent statement from FBI director who said: “There’s some question about whether or not it’s a bullet or shrapnel that hit his ear”, so I guess it’s still not clear it was definitely a bullet but yeah, teleprompter glass seems to be out.
