(The Center Square) – President Donald Trump was rushed out of the White House Correspondents’ Association dinner Saturday night after shots were fired at the event.
The White House said Trump is unharmed and the person who fired the shots is in custody, but no further details were released.
The Center Square’s White House Bureau Chief Sarah Roderick-Fitch was in attendance at the event and said she heard a loud noise before attendees started screaming. Secret Service agents then stormed the room and began escorting people out, Roderick-Fitch said.
Roderick-Fitch said she saw Health and Human Services Secretary Robert F. Kennedy Jr. being escorted out as well. She also said members of Trump’s Cabinet were taken to a safe area, but they are returning to the event, which may continue.
The event took place in the Washington, D.C. Hilton, less than 2 miles from the White House.
