Trump rally shooting: US Secret Service join hands with law enforcement partners to investigate

CHICAGO: The Department of Homeland Security (DHS) and the US Secret Service are working with law enforcement partners to investigate the life-threatening attack on former US president Donald Trump on Saturday, Secretary of Homeland Security Alejandro N Mayorkas said.

Trump got injured during his election rally in Pennsylvania following a series of gunshots. The US Secret Service said at about 6.15 pm, a suspected shooter fired multiple shots toward the stage from an elevated position outside of the rally venue in Butler.

The federal agency personnel immediately escorted the former president out and took him to a safer location.
