minnesota as well. thank you for joining us. follow president donald trump has been wounded in what the fee is calling an assassination attempt. trump was addressing the campaign valley in pennsylvania when the shots were fired. let's take a look at what happened you can hear those shots swinging out and the security for us to know something of the former president and supporters to get down to now to confirm that the cost was clear, they brought a deep trump back up on his feet to need in a way to safety when he did this, us raising his fist and the shouting the words fight sites that are both a so just choose from the support shows that you can see in that video from the valley. now, secret service says they have created the suspected shadow and the guy is

identifying him as a 20 year old man from pennsylvania. off to a defined show at the valley in a statement on social media on from that form to social to follow the president pass through united states secret service for the rapid response. trump has said i will show up with the bullet the fewest the off the thought of my is right? yup. i knew immediately that something was wrong. i heard a whizzing sound shots and immediately fast the bullet tripping to the skin must leading to place. so i realized then what was happening? oh yeah ah, so you gotta because one generic dom allowing in washington dc to tell us more about the pseudo well, maybe some of the f b i has released a name, but german media laws prevent us from saying that name on or air. so we're going to have to leave that detail out, but they identified a 20 year old from bethel park,

pennsylvania. so that is one hour away from butler, pennsylvania. where of course, this raley took place and this attempted assassination, a former president of donald trump. so he is a registered republican, although he has been known to donate to democratic campaigns, but he wasn't carrying any id on him. so law enforcement officials identified him via biometric data and dna testing. now the f, b, i in it statement did not offer that much else by way of detailed, but it did remind the public that this is an ongoing investigation that taught the pub, anybody in the public who might know something that is helpful to their investigation, should come forward now that that name has been released into the public. uh, the investigation of course is focusing intensely on what might have been his motive. we don't know anything about that at the moment. we don't know if this was

ideological. we don't know if this has anything to do with mental health. there are a host of, of other questions that they are trying to determine in relation to the suspect. they are not taking for granted that this was a lone wolf attack. for example. they're also not off, they're also trying to find out whether there are any more threats that are emanating from this particular attack. so the investigation, as they say, is ongoing support a lot less for the security services to on cargo. but i want to play this video outright now off the place where the value was being has. if i put off for the video to be pulled up, please of the day we have it. that's what the sides of the valley. you can see those red buildings for of yours and in front of that was where the stage was set, which is where the support as well. but is that on a ton 4th and now towards the left, that white building near the water stand. this is where apparently, according to multiple reports out there,

and now the pseudo was positioned and that is where it seems of the on the rooftop, the building they're looking at right now. this is where he took his chart from jeanette. these do look like close quarters for the former president to be short from i imagine that the security services were drilled about this at the briefing that they would at what does this say or indeed. so present at that briefing or s b i officials who are taking the lead and they were indeed grilled on this. they were asked how it was possible that the shooter could have gotten so close. now they did say that they too, were surprised at that, but also deferred that question to the secret service. the secret service, of course, of being responsible for the personal protection. a former president donald trump, responsible for securing the venue, secure reading the perimeter, and securing the radius around the venue. we know that that shooter was outside the

venue, but still quite close to with a direct line of line of sight to for bert president, a donald trump. so they are of course, going to phase questions as to why they were not able to secure that roof. well, we do know that the i with us, the set of costs because of the supporters in defense and some of them described what the sol, as the shooting was happening. let's take a listen. i was sitting there, a guy said, oh god, you had a gun. i looked up. there's a guy on top of the building right over there. and with an m. 16 with a blanket point and that the president, he started shooting file about about about, about $4.00 to $5.00 shots rang out there. it sounded like there were fireworks and everybody kind of hesitated like what's happening before trump like swatted his ear . you can see that he actually had that in he dropped in, that's when everybody had the initial reaction to drop to the ground. and there was just, it was just like people were just on top of each other like she was getting. she

was getting very light on, on top of her and so it was crazy. were like, well, we heard all, it's rattling around the grandstand, one hit this bigger tower and, and chaos. we hit the ground 1st. well, after her just shots got fired, then the hydraulic line was spraying all around the drawing. soon. coming out of it, simon speaker now started a folder for another shot here. so i mean, it wasn't the flag, right? because i mean, they weren't, they weren't super loud john, the guys from the secret service, they're just screaming. they were saying it was, wow, like everybody get down. and i heard 4 shots, and there was like a pause and one other shot. and people started lifting their head and they start screaming and they have to get back down, get back down. but i do think they go off the guy, whatever the 2nd shot came out. i heard this rocks far before are attracted to begin with somebody over there was

a shot shot. so i made my way over. i said, i'm in the mercy department physician. let me help you. guy. his phone around was cam ventures near the head shot here. there's lots of blood shut off, i'm tired of fine descriptions there, and we don't know that one of the people actually used in the school amongst a supporter of lost their life. and how is the trump camp reacting to the seeming to school or indeed, the one supporter lost their lives to others are injured. and you can imagine that hours after this incident, there is still very much a feeling of shock there. but we've all seen those images of trump by now where he is being wasted off to his motorcade and he faces as supporters. again, with his fist up in the air, the crowd, the crowd cheers in response. so this a, this is also an incident where his supporters are also very fired off and after

that happened, they also turned it to the media and started the 3rd year and started to say that the media was responsible for this. so there is a level of anger and blame seeking there. and in fact, from more official of a, for more official republican voice is, i mean, i mean, republican lawmakers here we are already starting to hear a lot of speculation. the top president biden might have orchestrated this on this attack on president on former president donald trump. this, of course, it is completely baseless, but you can also imagine how statements, like of odds, couldn't serve to further inflame the positions that are emanating from the trunk comp at the moment. a little sample walk which of statements. but let's go to the other side of the aisle. you mentioned that kind of things that are being said about president by it and without substance. but we do know that he spoke softly off of the database. so let's hear what do you have to say?

there's no place in america, there's kind of while it's sick, it sick. it's one of the reason why we have to night this country cannot allow for this to be happening. we cannot be like this. we cannot condone this. the bottom line is the right trump rally is a reality that he should have an intellect can be conducted peacefully without any problem. but the idea, the idea that there is a political violence or violence in america like this system, part of it is not appropriate suite. everybody, everybody must, can get everybody out both a form and then put pet quotes from a president facing i'm from century to the allegations from, from 4 to us. like you said, well being behind this attack, what's the stones? he's taking what is expected to do what he is clearly trying to do. there is once again underlined that there is no room for political violence in this country. that this is

a democracy that donald trump should be allowed to have a rally and have that riley be peaceful. so what, what joe biden is trying to do in this instance is to restore home to make sure that he doesn't say or do anything that was in the flame, the tensions that are already running high at the moment. and he's taken steps within his campaign of, for example, he and his team have pulled his campaign as off the air. it is not seen at the moment to be appropriate to be attacking trump. and if you, if you understand anything about american attack as they can be really, really quite adversarial. and that's just not thought to be the correct to move at the moment from the bite income. now i, i have been mentioning this about, so just a few days ago, i was at a bite in raleigh where he really was a very, very provocative and very aggressive against trump. and because his point also

there was to highlights the threats of another trump presidency. but this is not a message that he will be able to deliver at this time. and what again he is trying to do is to appeal for call, appeal, for civility, and appeal for respect for democracy. exactly, for the democrats strikes done down the temperature. what do we do? north of this campaign has been so divisive as you point out. what can we expect for the board forward to be of the there are some who say that there is a very positive opportunity to be seen in the wake of what is obviously a tragedy. this idea that this could be a wake up call. this idea that sought after this tragedy the country could come together and understand how important it is to be able to live with diverse viewpoints peacefully. but there is also the other possibility that it could

further stoke these divisions that it could further inflame these tensions. and what is going to be very important of going forward is how donald trump will handle the messaging. so of course, we know that the republican national convention is about to kick off. all eyes will be on the r n c. and how donald trump will present himself at the r n c. and how he will address this incidents? will he call? will he appeal to his followers to, to unite behind them, to move, to set aside divisions will or will he uses incidents and weaponized it? will his message be let's come together or will this message be my enemies are coming after me. you should go after that. so i think this uh, this will, this is the thing to watch what his message will be and that will determine how much of the outcome in terms of the way forward. do you got vision? no, don't allow on the thank you so much for tracking that developing story for us and

reactions to the children are coming in from around the world. would lead to us expressing condemnation and offering sympathy. you effectively genuine toner gutierrez, has condemned what he called an act of political violence. and he wished donald trump a speedy recovery. british prime minister, cure style mode, responded to what he called shocking scenes. sing political violence in any form has no police in our society. and my thoughts are with the victims of the attack you create as president of allowing me zalinski issued a statement. speaking officer leaf that trump is now safe and saying he hopes america images stronger from this. that's have a listen some. and there's a job in attempt the life of donald strongly was like to share with the crime that can only be condemned and which demonstrates how serious the challenges to democracy are globally fine. and those are and violence in any farm and anywhere most, absolutely not prevailing you. they have so little nipple in those out to or yeah,

i'm confident america with rise to the challenge by which mr. trump a speedy recovery strength and supports to those affected him to seem to post our stuff. cycle made every evil intention and fail. he and they've done a step more on the your pin perspective on this attempted assassination is a bad at the attempted assassination toner, the smell of correspondence, matthew moore in berlin, the fellow in pettus and jack patrick in process. let me stop with you, matthew, that a spot the political reactions here in germany. yeah, we've been getting quite a lot of reaction this morning. let me show and mostly it must be said on twitter or x. the chancellor, electrolytes, um we did and he called the attack despicable. we said such that so violent threats of democracy, the for administer, unavailable cause also the voice or condemnation of the the incident saying it had deeply shot her. and she said violets must never become a means of.
