00:00I'm now going to show you the moment that just happened when the former president was

00:03speaking at his rally.

00:05Let's watch that video.

00:06Look at what happened.

00:07Look at what happened.

00:27So what you're watching is video from just a few moments ago when former President Donald

00:32Trump was on stage at his rally.

00:34You see the secret service who were surrounding him.

00:39You see how they got him to the ground and that they were waiting to move him after we

00:45heard those noises.

00:46We don't know what those noises were at this point.

00:50We do know that they get him off the stage and that the former president was in his armored

00:55vehicle.

00:56They have now left the site of that incident.

00:59So the former president, Donald Trump, no longer there at that rally site in Butler,

01:04Pennsylvania.

01:05I'm going to let you watch more to see this full thing unfold.

01:08You see they move him off the stage.

01:16He is standing up.

01:22It's unclear what his status is, but you see him put his fist up and you see him doing

01:30a fist pump.

01:31It appears like he's saying fight.

01:35It looks as if there might be blood on his ear again.

01:40These are pictures we are just seeing for the first time right now as the former president

01:44is led off the stage in Butler, Pennsylvania, after we heard loud noises and he was rushed

01:51to the ground.

01:52And then you see the secret service around him getting him into his vehicle.

01:58Now we do not know where he is gone.

02:01We just know that he was put into that car right there.

02:05While you see his fist in the air, it does appear as if there is some blood on his ear.

02:10Unclear how that happened.

02:12Secret service get him into the vehicle and rush him off that site and get him out of

02:18there.

02:19Again, we don't know where the former president is at this exact moment, only that he was

02:24taken away from the rally site there in Butler, Pennsylvania.

02:29Again, if you were just tuning in, former president Donald Trump was minutes into his

02:35rally there in Pennsylvania when we heard loud noises.

02:39He was thrown to the ground by secret service agents who then rushed him in as you're watching

02:44now to that car and drove him off site.

02:48Our reporter Elena Treen witnessed this all unfold.

02:51Elena, I think you're here with us.

02:53I want to go out to Elena so she can tell us more of what she saw from her vantage point.

02:58Elena.

02:59Hi, Jessica.

03:00Yeah, so it's been a very chaotic couple of minutes.

03:05A lot of tension right now out here.

03:08So as you mentioned, Donald Trump was on stage.

03:10It was just moments after he had walked onto the stage to deliver remarks.

03:14He was very briefly into that.

03:16And so I'm going to show you behind me.

03:18So around this area, somewhere off on that field over there, is where we heard a bunch

03:23of banging or cracking, loud cracking noises.

03:26At first I thought, is that fireworks?

03:28I had no idea what it was.

03:31All of a sudden, everyone started screaming.

03:33On the other side of the rally, on the other side of the stage, a lot of steam went off

03:38back here, right behind that tractor over there, if you can see it.

03:41And all of a sudden, you heard secret service, security guards on the ground, everyone telling

03:45one to get down, to move, to move.

03:48I actually had to jump off this riser right here and went under the riser.

03:53So I didn't get to see everything that was happening as Donald Trump was being moved

03:56off the stage.

03:58But clearly right now, everybody is being evacuated from this rally venue.

04:03They are very angry.

04:05You can hear people in the crowd are, some people are crying.

04:09Some people are screaming.

04:10People are very angry with what just happened.

04:12They're angry at the media.

04:13They're screaming at the media behind me.

04:16Very unclear exactly what happened.

04:19We know that Donald Trump, of course, left the venue immediately.

04:22He was escorted off the stage by secret service.

04:24We saw his motorcade quickly leave and drive off.

04:29We don't have many answers right now.

04:31Also my phones are jammed.

04:32I've been trying to see if I could contact some of Donald Trump's team, get any sort

04:36of update.

04:37There's no service or signal right now.

04:39So we're all just trying to see what exactly is happening.

04:42What is the state of the former president?

04:44How Donald Trump is doing?

04:46And what exactly happened here this evening?

04:48Alaina, Alaina, can you hear me?

04:50Before we let you go, can you hear me okay?

04:53Okay.

04:54Before we let you go.

04:55I can hear you.

04:56Is anyone else, do they appear to be injured?

04:58And it appears like whatever happened doesn't look like they think it's still a threat because

05:02people are still moving around.

05:06That's right.

05:07It's not a threat.

05:08A couple minutes.

05:09I don't even know how long.

05:11About a minute.

05:12I would say that we were all on the ground, that they had us hiding, people to get down.

05:16After that, we were given an all clear, I believe from Secret Service.

05:20Again, I was under the riser hiding after we had heard those, whatever that sound was,

05:25whether it was fireworks or whatnot.

05:27I don't want to try to speculate on what that noise was.

05:31It does not appear from what I can tell that anyone was injured.

05:33But I honestly can't say that completely accurately right now.

05:37We really do not have a lot of information at this time.

05:41But as I can see from my own vantage point here, looking at this stage as I've been scanning

05:44the ground, I haven't seen any stretchers.

05:46I haven't seen them bring in any sort of trucks.

05:49But again, we really don't know.

05:51Everyone is being evacuated.

05:52And I think we will get some more answers soon as we continue to hear from the people

05:56on the ground and the people running the show here tonight in Butler.

05:59Okay.

06:00All right.

06:01Elena, we want you all to be very careful.

06:02Please find a secure place.

06:04We will check back in with you, but I'm very glad you all and the team there are okay.

06:09Please be very careful.

06:10In the meantime, let's go to Chief National Affairs Correspondent Jeff Zeleny, who is

06:15joining us.

06:16Jeff, before we start talking, just for anyone that's just tuning in, I want to give them

06:21the headlines here.

06:22What they are looking at are live pictures coming out of Butler, Pennsylvania, where

06:28some loud noises were heard.

06:31We don't know exactly what they were yet.

06:33All we know is that former President Donald Trump was speaking.

06:36We heard the loud noises.

06:37He was several minutes into his speech.

06:40He dropped to the ground.

06:41Secret Service swarmed the stage.

06:44They lifted him back up.

06:46He put a fist in the air.

06:47He did appear to have blood coming from his ear.

06:50We now know that he was whisked away.

06:52He was put into one of those armored vehicles and whisked away.

06:56He has left that site.

06:58So that is the state of play.

06:59There are a lot of questions right now, Jeff.

07:02It was a very, it's a scary thing to watch unfold.

07:04There's a lot of unknown.

07:06As Elena was just laying out for us, nobody quite knows exactly what happened yet.

07:13But Jeff, in a moment like this, it just kind of, it scares everyone that was there.

07:20And it is a hard thing to kind of take in and watch unfold, not knowing exactly what's

07:26happened yet.

07:27Well, Jessica, it absolutely is.

07:29And let's go through what we do know.

07:31We do know that former President Donald Trump, as you said, is in Butler, Pennsylvania.

07:35It's about 30 minutes or so, a little bit more than that, from Pittsburgh.

07:38Of course, Pennsylvania, a key swing state.

07:41So this rally was supposed to be really kind of a launching pad to the Republican convention

07:46next week.

07:47It's very near Ohio, where J.D. Vance, of course, is a senator.

07:50So there's been a lot of speculation.

07:52He is one of the running mates.

07:54But when you attend a Trump rally, as both you and I have many times, he is the former

08:00president.

08:01As much security details, the U.S. Secret Service screens everyone going into these

08:06rallies.

08:07At least that is the protocol.

08:08Of course, we will learn much more once we, once this develops.

08:15But you can't just arrive at a Trump rally and watch.

08:18You are screened as though you were going to any type of an official event.

08:22So you can see there, the crowd has cleared.

08:25As Elena was reporting, it does not appear to still be an active incident.

08:29You can see the officers there putting the crime tape.

08:32Those are local officers.

08:33But this will be under the control of the U.S. Secret Service.

08:36They travel with the former president.

08:38He has a protective detail, just like a sitting president or a former president, slightly

08:44smaller than a sitting president.

08:46So we do not know the details of the former president's injuries, the extent of them.

08:51We are reaching out to his team.

08:52But many of them are on the ground with him there.

08:54So you can imagine how chaotic this scene is.

08:57You can see the officers there urging the crowd to leave.

09:01But this was supposed to be a marquee rally, sending him off into the Republican convention.

09:06It's one of the really brighter spots of this Trump campaign.

09:11The Republican convention was a celebratory moment here.

09:16This now will change that considerably.

09:19So as we check more from our sources and colleagues on the ground there, this is an

09:25epic moment, a tragedy.

09:28We will hope it does not extend more than that here.

09:32But certainly this goes beyond any political tensions in this country.

09:37Yeah, it certainly does.

09:38And Jeff, I want to play the video for everyone to watch the moment.

09:43So let's go ahead and cue that video.

09:46Let's show everyone.

09:48This was Donald Trump being led off the stage.

09:51You see he does appear to have some blood there on his right ear.

09:56He is being kind of held up by Secret Service officers there.

10:00As Jeff mentioned, we don't know how injured he was or is.

10:05We do know that he was put into that vehicle and driven away.

10:10And Jeff, again, Elena was describing, Elena Train, who is on the scene there in Butler,

10:15who was covering this rally, was describing these loud popping sounds that came from one

10:19side and then kind of some steam or something else that came from the other side there.
