The former president appeared to have blood on his face as he was rushed from the stage by the Secret Service following a series of loud pops during a rally in Pennsylvania. A spokesman for the Secret Service said Mr. Trump was safe after “an incident.”
“An incident occurred the evening of July 13 at a Trump rally in Pennsylvania. The Secret Service has implemented protective measures and the former President is safe. This is now an active Secret Service investigation and further information will be released when available.”
Audio reads “shooter is down” and there are reports of someone in custody.
The title should be changed. Confirming “shots fired” is irresponsible. So far there’s only been noises confirmed.
Due to Donald Trump’s willingness to deceive, it’s unfortunately not out of the realm of possibility that this is a publicity stunt. All sound and no bullets.
Pinning for visibility:
Watching the coverage right now, as the (shots?) rang out, he grabbed his right ear just before the Secret Service took him down and hustled him off.

You should wait for official confirmation.
