Reports indicate two people died after gunshots were fired at a Trump rally in Pennsylvania. Video shows the former president hit in the ear and rushed off stage by armed security. Butler County District Attorney confirmed the gunman and a rally attendee were killed. Another person is in critical condition. Videos reveal police dragging a bloodied individual from the crowd, though their identity and condition remain unclear. The incident unfolded as Trump delivered his speech. Suddenly, he fell, clutching his ear, and was quickly surrounded by guards. Rising to his feet, he pumped his fist and shouted "Fight!" before being whisked off stage. Trump was then driven away from the chaotic scene. Video footage shows blood coming from his ear as he was taken away.
