Shooting

US Attorney Jeanine Ferris Pirro shared a video of Cole Allen shooting a Secret Service officer and preparing for an apparent attack on the president.

Contrasting statements have raised the question of who fired the round that struck the Secret Service officer during the White House Correspondents' Association dinner.

A gunman opened fire at a social security office and a courthouse in central Athens, wounding several people. Police have launched a manhunt for the 89-year-old suspect.

After conducting searches at the scene of the incident, police officers found an M16 rifle and a magazine filled with ammunition, seizing them both.

Asked if he believed he had been a target, Trump did not directly respond, instead focusing on the content of the “radicalized” suspect’s manifesto. 

A law enforcement official told Reuters that the suspect had written an anti-Christian manifesto, in which he called himself the “Friendly Federal Assassin.”

Spokesperson for the Israeli Embassy in Washington, Tal Naim, said she was sitting about 200 meters from the stage and heard “shouting and a great deal of panic.”

Condemnations poured in from Israel and several other countries following the attack at a Washington DC hotel, as well as expressions of relief that no US officials were harmed.
