Following gunfire at the rally, Trump was hurt; one participant was killed, and the shooter also died

Following the gunfire, Trump was captured on camera compressing his body to the right, holding his ear, and collapsing. He was soon swarmed by Secret Service agents, who hustled him to his vehicle. The right half of Trump's head appeared to be covered with blood.

According to the Butler County district attorney, one rally attendee has died and another is in bad condition. K.E.S News verifies that the shooter has died.

A doctor who attended the protest told K.E.S News that he was sitting in the bleachers when he saw one of the attendees die. He claimed to have seen the man shot from behind and tumble down the bleachers, looking to have died quickly. He claimed to have assisted officials in carrying the man away from the event.

As Secret Service officials led Trump off the stage, he stood up and slammed his fist in the air for many seconds.

Three top US law enforcement officials told K.E.S News that the gunfire occurred outside of the Secret Service's protection perimeter for the rally stage.
