This incident came after a busy day of campaigning for both Trump and President Joe Biden in the 2024 presidential race.

The attempted assassination has sparked international condemnation and raised discussions on the safety and security of political leaders.

Details of the incident are still emerging, and investigations are ongoing.

Meanwhile, the US Secret Service says it is working to discover “what happened, how it happened, and how we can prevent an incident like this from ever taking place again”.
