Secret Service agents have rushed former president off a stage during a campaign event in Butler, Pennsylvania
Gunshots have been fired at a Donald Trump rally in Pennsylvania on Saturday. The former president was rushed off stage by security staff, with images showing blood stains on his right ear.
Several loud bangs were heard as Trump was giving a speech in the city of Butler. Trump quickly fell to the ground and was shielded by his security team.
Trump rose from the ground several moments later and raised a clenched fist into the air. He was then escorted to his motorcade.
This is the full clip.
