as you can see, we are on the ground behind our car, which is not ideal, but that's the shelter we have at the moment. there's no place in america for this kind of violence. it's sick, it's sick. it's one of the reasons why we have to unite this country. and there's just six hours to go before england face spain in the euro final in berlin. hello. donald trump has survived an assassination attempt — at a rally in pennsylvania — he's now left hospital, he's posted another statement on social media. mr trump said: �*we will fear not, but instead remain resilient

our love goes out to the other victims and their families. the fbi says the gunman who was on a nearby roof and wounded two others before being shot dead by snipers. security agents rushed to help mr trump and then hurried him off stage. mrtrump trump and then hurried him off stage. mr trump said a bullet had pierced his ear. he is now expected to spend a night at his private

golf club the gunman was shot dead moments after this. what you just heard was some of the reaction from the distressed crowds after that man was killed. our senior north america correspondent, gary o'donoghue, was outside the venue where donald trump's rally took place. this is his report. and you know, that is a little bit old, that chart�*s a couple of months old... it was just a few minutes into donald trump's speech when a volley of shots rang out. gunshots. get down, get down, get down! gunshots. the former president can be seen clutching at the right side of his head. after that, he hit the ground as the secret service pile on top of him. theirjob, to put their bodies between him and the shooter. there was a panic among the thousands of people inside the rally. many ran, many threw themselves into the ground. donald trump was seen getting

to his feet and raising a fist to his supporters, signs of blood at his right ear. cheering. we are just waiting to see if things have cleared, and as you can see, we are on the ground behind our car, which isn't ideal, but that is the shelter we have at the moment, and that is what we are trying to ascertain, what has happened? as people streamed out of the venue, they told us what they had seen. one man, a local business owner, described how he had noticed a man he believed to be the shooter climbing onto a low roof nearby holding a weapon. we noticed a guy crawling, bear crawling, up the roof of the building beside us.

50 feet away from us. so, we are seeing him there, and we are pointing, pointing at the guy pointing at the lap up the roof. and he had a gun, right? he had a rifle. a rifle? we could clearly see him with a rifle. absolutely. we're pointing at him, the police are down there running around on the ground, we are like: "hey, man, there is a guy on the roof with a rifle." and the police are like: "oh, what?" you know, like, they didn't know what was going on. shouting. what are you doing? i heard the shots. i thought it was firecrackers, to begin with. somebody over there was screaming: "he has been shot, he has been shot." so, i made my way over. i said: "i am an emergency department physician, can we help you?" the guy had spun around and wasjammed between the benches.

there is a helicopter coming in to get him. so, people there were really helpful... was only one person shot, that you saw? den i did cpr, chest compression is as well a brief one. president trump was taken straight off to the local butler county hospital. shortly afterwards, he released a statement paying tribute to law enforcement, and expressing condolences for those killed and injured. the statement said: i was shot with a bullet that pierced the upper part of my right ear. i knew immediately that something was wrong, and that i heard a whizzing sound, shots, and immediately felt the bullet ripping through the skin." condemnations were swift. president biden had this to say. the idea that there is political violence and violence in america like this is just unheard—of, it is just not appropriate, and everybody must condemn it. everybody.

the biden campaign is suspending its activities for the time being. though, donald trump has indicated he plans to go to the republican national convention on monday as planned. our north america correspondent, nada tawfik, joins us live from milwaukee — where the republican national convention, starts on monday. all tell me more because there must be profound shock where you are? absolutely. and real question is of course remain about the security lapses. the fbi themselves have admitted that it is shocking that

the shooter was able to open fire, hundreds of feet away from the stage where donald trump speaking. and in terms of the investigation they say that the suspect has been identified as 20—year—old thomas matthew crooks. they say he was not known to them and they had no specific knowledge of threats ahead of the event. but they have now swarmed his family home. they are reaching out to his family to interview them to get more information. but already republicans have summoned the head of the secret service to testify. they say america demands answers around this has this americo which has already being described as

a tinderbox has entered a dark chapter now. a tinderbox has entered a dark chapter "ow-— chapter now. tell us about the condition of _ chapter now. tell us about the condition of the _ chapter now. tell us about the condition of the former - chapter now. tell us about the i condition of the former president now? ., , , condition of the former president now? donald trump is in jersey now. he actually — now? donald trump is in jersey now. he actually got _ now? donald trump is in jersey now. he actually got off _ now? donald trump is in jersey now. he actually got off the _ now? donald trump is in jersey now. he actually got off the plane - now? donald trump is in jersey now. he actually got off the plane last - he actually got off the plane last night completely unaided. his campaign says he is in great spirits. the former president himself says he is looking forward to being here in milwaukee later in... to talk to the nation. in that statement he put out earlier this morning, clearly he is very in tune with this being a momentous moment for him and the campaign. and he wanted to strike the correct tone. he painted himself as a fighter, saying he will remain resilient and fight. he is appealing for unity at

this time. but certainly for donald trump at... in that statement saying only god alone could have prevented what has happened there. we see in those photographs how closely the bullet went by his ear. and telling the secret service to wait and took a moment to pump his fist for his supporters. we can expect the tone in milwaukee to reflect what has happened in pennsylvania. we heard from the president _ happened in pennsylvania. we heard from the president and _ happened in pennsylvania. we heard| from the president and condemnation across the board. yes from the president and condemnation across the board.— across the board. yes there has been commonly condemnation _ across the board. yes there has been commonly condemnation across - across the board. yes there has been commonly condemnation across the i commonly condemnation across the board. president biden saying it's

sick what has happened. i was just in a rally forjoe biden on friday and there he was trying to put the focus on donald trump. step up the attacks on donald trump after his disastrous debate performances and the calls for him to stand down. and we see the day after his campaign focusing on donald trump's threat to democracy, we see this attack. joe biden has always condemned violence republicans are now blaming democrats messaging for leading to this attack. despite calls condemning political violence, despite calls for unity, given the

rhetoric, this could lead to more division in the country. there are huge questions for the us secret service about what has happenned. simonjones can us tell more. well, the assassination attempt was over in just a few seconds, but it's worth taking some time to look at how it all happened via pictures that we verified on social media. now, here you can get a sense of the geography of the scene. now you've got spectators gathered in those three stands there. donald trump was speaking on the stage there. but it's worth noting these three buildings here because they're important for a sense of what happened. those are those three buildings. this was a picture taken before the rally, donald trump speaking in that area. but note the building over here. this is key because that is where

the gunman was on the roof there. if we move on here, this was a picture taken by a spectator. you can see that building where the gunman was, people looking on without any concern at that point. but afterwards we've blurred an image. the gunman had been killed at that point and video has emerged of the gunman. you canjust make him out on the roof there. now, we've calculated the distance between the gunman on the roof. and donald trump was only around 130m. so that gunman got really, really close. and so there are some really big questions for the secret service. now, theirjob is to protect the former president and presidents, and people are saying they failed spectacularly in that role. this image shows a sniper designed to protect the former president. you can see donald trump speaking there. and certainly the authorities were keener today to talk about what they were doing, to look into what happened rather

than any potential failings. this evening, we had what we're calling an assassination attempt against our former president, donald trump. it's still an active crime scene. as i mentioned, we have a number of agents on scene. we also are working closely with other federal agencies, our state partners and our local police partners as well. we do not currently have an identified motive, although our investigators are working tirelessly to attempt to identify what that motive was. so now americans are demanding to know how this happened, how a gunman was able to get so close to the president, a man who should be one of the most highly protected people in the world. let me tell you that in the last few

seconds... the the latest from the rnc chair... cbs reporter ross dimattei in butler. can you tell us what butler is like? how have the local community reacted? good morning. behind me is the butlerfarm showground good morning. behind me is the butler farm showground the site of an assassination attempt on donald trump sly. it's been a busy morning. the fbi now leads the investigation into this attempted assassination.

essentially, members of the media are now along the per perimeter that is the typical backdrop for the presidents rallies. that is the actual site of the rally itself and now the attempted assassination of former president donald trump. i just spoke to someone who said what butler was like. it is very rural out here. about a0 minutes north of pittsburgh. this is trump country. he won this area very... this is a trump stronghold which makes this

attempt even more shocking. this he attempt even more shocking. as he was sa in: attempt even more shocking. as he was saying that _ attempt even more shocking. as he was saying that is _ attempt even more shocking. as he was saying that is a _ attempt even more shocking. as he was saying that is a crime _ attempt even more shocking. as he was saying that is a crime scene. i was saying that is a crime scene. the critical things is to work out the exact sequence of events will stop what have people been saying to you. stop what have people been saying to ou. . , stop what have people been saying to ou. ., , , stop what have people been saying to ou. . , , , ., ., you. that is the big question. how was the shooter _ you. that is the big question. how was the shooter able _ you. that is the big question. how was the shooter able to _ you. that is the big question. how was the shooter able to get - you. that is the big question. how was the shooter able to get so - you. that is the big question. how i was the shooter able to get so close to the former president around security, by all accounts. everyone security, by allaccounts. everyone went through metal detectors. the shooter was outside the security perimeter. that being said it is the job of the security services to make sure there are no threats. there was a mistake made by the private

security team responsible for clearing the area. the big question is how. how was the shell shooter able to pull this off? the investigation by the fbi is centred around that. are we expecting any statements from local officials or law enforcement today? we haven't heard anything in terms of a press gathering or new information being released by the fbi all the secret service. i had a short conversation with a state trooper. am i on the right place to get the newest information? he didn't really have a answer for me. this speaks to the chaos surrounding the fallout from this attempted assassination on the former presidents life. we haven't heard anything when we will hear any new

information but we will pass that on a soon as we do. we information but we will pass that on a soon as we do.— a soon as we do. we will talk in a moment to _ a soon as we do. we will talk in a moment to robert _ a soon as we do. we will talk in a moment to robert mcdonald. - a soon as we do. we will talk in a moment to robert mcdonald. he| a soon as we do. we will talk in a . moment to robert mcdonald. he led the team that predicted vice president biden a few we will talk to him in a few minutes now it's time for a look at today's sport with tulsen tollett. we will start with the euros.

at the university of new haven. before retiring he led the team that protected then vice presidentjoe biden. what is the overriding emotion that you are feeling this morning? feeling a lot of sympathy or wondering what the agents who went through that horrific situation are going through. we spend our entire career preparing for a situation like that. i never had to experience that in all my years with the secret service. a number of things will have gone wrong. it is a little early to be overly critical of the entire operation. the secret service is going to have to do a deep dive on this to work out what went well what didn't go well and what we can do to make sure that something like this doesn't happen... we are entering into a time in the united

states that feels like home stretch for the election. there is a lot of vitriol between the candidates. there is... it a lot of ugly situation. there are immediate serious questions that america needs answers, that was what lawmakers have been saying in the subsequent hours. how a shooter could get close to that close to the president? it to that close to the president? it troubled me a little bit that the eyewitness was indicating to police and all secret services agents that week they were seeing him crawl up on the roof with a weapon. i am a little bit concerned as to why that information did not make it to the

presidents detail and shift. those are the people specifically around him after the shock ran out. i'm a little bit concerned that information wasn't passed along to the shift so that they could have made a decision to take off that stage before any of those shots rang out. we are going to have to find out. we are going to have to find out what they knew and when they knew it, and why the system did not work to get that intelligence to the people who needed to know it at that immediate time. we people who needed to know it at that immediate time.— immediate time. i've read criticism to about the _ immediate time. i've read criticism to about the length _ immediate time. i've read criticism to about the length of _ immediate time. i've read criticism to about the length of time - immediate time. i've read criticism to about the length of time that i immediate time. i've read criticism to about the length of time that it | to about the length of time that it took to get the president of that stage. the very fact that he was able to stand up, to pump his fist, to be visible, again and potentially give the shooter another opportunity. what is your thought on the time it took to get the president away from the scene? many ofthe president away from the scene? many of the things — president away from the scene? many of the things that _ president away from the scene? many of the things that the _ president away from the scene? plan; of the things that the shift did after they reacted to the shot is

very good. i certainly would have liked to see the former president taken off the stage a lot quicker. however, in this type of situation there is no script. nothing goes exactly according to the way we train. and you have to react according to the situation at the time. the president may have been resisting he wanted to get the gesture out. things could have been better there. gesture out. things could have been betterthere. but gesture out. things could have been better there. but overall very happy with the way the shift responded. how normally would a campaign rally be secured? the how normally would a campaign rally be secured? ,, . how normally would a campaign rally be secured?— be secured? the secret service... any entity — be secured? the secret service... any entity has _ be secured? the secret service... any entity has trouble _ be secured? the secret service... any entity has trouble securing i be secured? the secret service... | any entity has trouble securing the outside then you, especially with the crowds that president tram has

been drawing. what the secret service does is using methodologies in advance... three concentric rings of detection. the outer ring is normally local or state police and we all work in concert together over a five or six... day period. that's when all the hypothetical questions come up. the roof of that building should be discussed and negated for any problems. that's how that all comes together. they do those motorcade rallies. they make sure all the roads are safe. we do a hospital survey. the president went to the hospital after this incident and there was already information as to where that hospital was and what the phone number was so we could

tell them where we were coming. thank you for coming we continue to look at those pictures. the aftermath of donald trump and the assassination attempt. you're watching bbc news. . the image that has gone around the world the blood spattered face of donald trump. the fist pump as the secret service try to get him a way. and as we've heard he is recovering in the aftermath. we have had so much reaction... we

will go through that in the programme in the next little while. do stay with us on bbc news. we are still waiting for updates from the authorities. then timor from the still waiting for updates from the authorities. then timorfrom the us on that assassination attempt. let us turn to that other story that we are justjuggling through the next the countdown is on: it's just a matter of hours until england take on spain in the euro 202a final. excitment is running high for die—hard football fans. the england men's squad are hoping to win their first major trophy in almost six decades. will england defy the odds — or will favourites spain snatch the glory? we will spend at their next little while looking at all of the reaction and build—up. 0ur reporter meghan 0wen is at exeter city football club — where england and aston villa
