Former President Donald Trump was abruptly rushed off stage by Secret Service agents during a rally in Butler, Pennsylvania, on Saturday evening. The incident occurred shortly after Trump began his speech, causing alarm and swift action from his security detail.

Donald Trump is surrounded by U.S. Secret Service agents at a campaign rally in Butler, Pa., on Saturday.

Trump started addressing the crowd at approximately 6 p.m. when a sudden disturbance led Secret Service agents to intervene. According to eyewitnesses, a loud commotion erupted near the front of the stage, leading to heightened security concerns. Secret Service agents quickly surrounded the former president and escorted him off the stage, with Trump seen pumping his fist as he was led away. Eyewitnesses say they heard a loud bang before the commotion.

Witnesses reported seeing blood on Trump’s right ear as he was being taken off stage, adding to the concern and confusion among the rally attendees. Preliminary reports suggest that Trump may have been struck by a thrown object, although the exact cause of the injury remains under investigation.

Heavily armed security personnel immediately took to the stage to manage the situation and ensure the safety of all present. The rally was temporarily halted as authorities assessed the situation and provided medical attention to Trump.
