(Daily Mail) Donald Trump was seen bleeding from his ear after being injured in a shooting at a re-election rally where a bystander was killed by the shooter’s bullets.
At least eight bullets were fired moments after Trump got up to speak after 5pm ET Saturday, at Butler Farm Grounds in Butler, Pennsylvania.
The president was seen ducking, with blood pouring from his ear as screams from terrified onlookers rang out. His team says that he is ‘fine.’
It has since been reported that Trump was struck by a piece of flying glass from a teleprompter shattered during the shooting.
Secret Service agents could be heard shouting ‘the shooter is down’ in the ensuing chaos.

Butler County District Attorney Richard Goldinger told reporters the shooter is dead and that a bystander had also been killed in the bloodbath.
The identities of the shooter and the dead bystander have not yet been confirmed. It is also unclear where the shooter opened fire from and what kind of weapon was used.
In an image that has already gone around the world, Trump was pictured repeatedly pumping his fist with blood dripping from his face while being surrounded by Secret Service agents.
Moments later, he was rushed away to safety. Trump’s team said further updates on the former president’s condition will follow soon.
His son Donald Trump Jr has since shared a post of his bloodied father with his fist clenched on X, captioned: ‘He’ll never stop fighting to save America.’
A spokesman added that the GOP 2024 hopeful added that Trump ‘thanks law enforcement and first responders for their quick action during this heinous act.’
