# President Donald Trump and first lady Melania Trump were rushed out of the White House Correspondents’ Association dinner by Secret Service agents on Saturday night after a man armed with a shotgun tried to breach security. The armed man fired at a Secret Service agent who was not injured. The event was attended by two-thousand-600 people and eventually cancelled for the evening. Trump posted on social media that he hoped it could be rescheduled in 30 days. Saturday was the first time Trump has attended the correspondents’ dinner as president.
CBS News, reports that the suspect is believed to be a 31-year-old man from Torrence, based in Los Angeles’ south-western suburbs in California. He is receiving treatment in a nearby hospital and remains in police custody. During a press briefing Trump’s Attorney General, Todd Blanche, said that man would be charged very soon.
