‘I did not want to move away from there…’ Trump’s big statement after the shooting, picture of the attacker released

Washington: There was a stir at the Hilton Hotel in Washington DC, the US capital, on Saturday night when suddenly shots started being fired at a high-profile event of President Donald Trump. This attack, which took place around quarter to nine in the night, has shocked the entire world. As soon as they heard the sound of bullets, the Secret Service personnel immediately surrounded President Trump from all sides and took him out safely. For the first time after this attack, Donald Trump has come in front of the media and narrated his ordeal.

Who is the attacker and what were his intentions?

President Trump himself revealed that the name of the arrested suspect is Cole Thomas Allen, who is only 31 years old. This young man is a resident of Torrance, California. According to Trump, Allen had come with the intention of causing some major destruction. Several dangerous weapons have been recovered from him, including a shotgun and a handgun. Fortunately, due to the alertness of the Secret Service, he failed to cause bloodshed inside the main ballroom. Trump said that the suspect was away from the stage, but he was moving towards him very fast.

Questions raised on security arrangements and new building

During the press conference, Trump took a strong stance on this security lapse. He raised questions on the construction of the new ballroom of Hilton Hotel and said that this place is not safe. Trump also mentioned his plan which was banned by the court. “That’s why we want a secure structure in the White House with features like drone-proof and bulletproof glass, which are also being demanded by the Secret Service and the military,” he said. FBI Director Kash Patel has made it clear that the agency is investigating every clue to get to the bottom of this conspiracy. The administration has also released photographs of the attacker to maintain transparency among the public.

‘I gave my all’ – Trump looked aggressive

Donald Trump appeared very confident during the entire incident. He told that when the firing took place, he was in no mood to retreat from there. “I tried my best to keep the show going, but security officials said there was a threat to my life and decided to cancel the show,” Trump said. However, Trump has assured his supporters that the ‘White House Correspondents’ Dinner’ which was postponed due to this incident, will be held again soon.
