Gunfire erupted during the annual White House Correspondents’ Dinner in Washington, D.C., causing panic among attendees. The event, held at the Washington Hilton Hotel, was interrupted when several shots were reportedly heard. President Donald Trump was immediately moved to a secure location, while guests, including the First Lady, Vice President, and cabinet members, took cover under tables. Security forces temporarily restricted movement inside the hotel.
Trump later stated on Truth Social that the suspected shooter had been detained alive. He said he had advised continuing the event but left the final decision to law enforcement. The U.S. Secret Service confirmed that the president and all protected individuals were safe and that one person was in custody.
Trump announced that the dinner would not proceed as planned and would be rescheduled within 30 days. Officials later indicated that activities at the venue might resume, though it remained unclear whether the president or senior guests would return.
