President Donald Trump survived a major security breach and shooting incident during a high-profile political gathering in Washington, D.C., when a lone gunman opened fire inside a crowded ballroom.
Interim D.C. Police Chief Jeffrey Carroll confirmed that the suspect, identified as Cole Allen, was swiftly arrested at the scene following the chaotic confrontation.
During the violent exchange, a Secret Service agent was shot at close range but survived without life-threatening injuries, thanks to the protective capabilities of a heavy bulletproof vest.
