Agents could be heard shouting ‘get down’ as soon as the shots, which injured his right ear, were fired at Trump. Once he was on the ground security agents shouted ‘shooter is down’ after a sniper killed the suspected shooter, 20-year-old Thomas Matthew Crooks.
While the former president was escorted off-stage, Trump could be heard repeatedly saying ‘let me get my shoes’, before appearing to chant ‘fight’ towards spectators. Law enforcement agents are investigating what they suspect was an attempted assassination
