Former president Donald Trump said he was shot in the ear in his first statement after the shooting at his rally in Pennsylvania on Saturday, adding that he “immediately felt the bullet ripping through the skin” in a post on his Truth Social account.
Trump extended his condolences to the family of the person who was killed at the rally as well as to another injured party.
“I want to thank The United States Secret Service, and all of Law Enforcement, for their rapid response on the shooting that just took place in Butler, Pennsylvania,” Trump said on Truth Social.
