President Trump of the United States stated on his social platform "Truth Social" that the gunman involved in the White House Correspondents' Association dinner has been captured.
Trump wrote: "Tonight in Washington, D.C., was truly extraordinary. The Secret Service and law enforcement agencies did an outstanding job. They acted swiftly and courageously. The shooter has been apprehended, and I suggest we 'keep the show going,' but fully defer to law enforcement's decisions. They will make their determination shortly. Whatever the decision, tonight will be vastly different from the original plan—we may have to start over."
Trump attended the White House Correspondents' Association dinner on the evening of the 25th, when a security incident suddenly occurred. Unusual noises were heard at the scene, and Trump was escorted away by security personnel. Subsequently, reports emerged that a shooting had taken place at the Washington Hilton Hotel hosting the dinner, with the suspect gunman deceased. Other reports indicated the gunman had been "subdued."
