“US Secret Service personnel neutralized the shooter, who is now deceased. US Secret Service quickly responded with protective measures, and the former president was safe and being evaluated,” the statement continued.
The Secret Service confirmed, “One spectator was killed, two spectators were critically injured.”
None of the victims or the shooter had been publicly identified as of Saturday evening at the time of publishing.
As The Gateway Pundit previously reported, a man who identified himself as an emergency room doctor said that he tried to save a man’s life in the crowd after he was shot in the head.
The doctor spoke to CBS News reporter Jake Rosen, who said that he first thought it was fireworks — then heard someone saying, “he’s been shot, he’s been shot!”
“So, I made my way over. I said I am an emergency department physician. Let me help you,” the doctor explained.

The guy had become stuck between the benches and was shot in the head.
The doctor said that he saw a lot of scattered brain matter but that he started chest compressions and attempted to perform CPR.
Another witness told CNN that it was clear he was dead as soon as he was shot and that he was surrounded by his family when it happened.
This is a breaking news event. The Gateway Pundit will be providing updates as new information becomes available.
