Trump rally eyewitness saw spectator 'hit in the head’ by gunfire
Trump Rally Witness Details Horrific Scene as Gunfire Erupts
In an exclusive interview, a Trump rally witness described the shocking scene as gunfire erupted at the former President’s event. The witness, Rachel Scott, has been to numerous Trump rallies and is still trying to process the traumatic events that unfolded.
"I was just about 30 feet from Trump when I saw the people who had been shot," she said, visibly shaken. "There was a lot of blood, and I knew there was no way he was going to survive that. It was like real chaos."
Scott recalled the initial confusion, as many in the crowd thought it was just firecrackers or noise from outside. "When I heard the pop-pop-pop, I thought it was a firecracker like with Kennedy," she said. "Then we were told to get down, and it took me about two minutes to fully process what was happening."
When asked about the security measures in place at the rally, Scott acknowledged that she’s been to numerous Trump events, which typically have strict security precautions, including magnetometers and bag searches. However, she couldn’t understand how the gunman managed to bring a weapon into the area. "I think we’re all in shock… I just couldn’t believe it happened in one of these rallies."
The witness also revealed that law enforcement told those in attendance to stay down, even though President Trump had been escorted to safety. When they eventually rose to assess the situation, they were met with an eerie sight: six or seven armed men with AR-15s, scouring the area.
"It was like watching History unfold," Scott said, shaking her head. "It was a horrible thing to witness, and I’m still trying to process it all."
Scott’s words echoed the sentiments of many who were present at the rally, as they struggled to come to terms with the traumatic events they witnessed. The incident left at least one person dead and sparked widespread shock and disbelief.
"I think we’re all going to struggle with trauma from this event," Scott noted. "To see someone so senselessly taken from their life… it’s just a hard thing to comprehend."
