According to The Post Millennial, Secret Service “whisked” President Donald Trump away from his White House press briefing to the Oval Office. He returned about nine minutes later and confirmed there was a shooting.
“There was a shooting outside of the White House and it seems to be very well under control. I’d like to thank the Secret Service for doing their always quick and very effective work,” Trump said.
Something really strange just happened during the press conference, a person interrupted the President to inform him of something and the President left the briefing pic.twitter.com/k04ciYPMTd
