President Donald Trump shared on Truth Social a photo and video footage of a shooter’s attempt to barrel past a security checkpoint at the White House Correspondents’ Dinner.
The video, shared shortly before a hastily convened press conference at the White House on Saturday night, shows a blur of a man running past law enforcement officers standing near magnetometers at the Washington Hilton.
Trump also posted a photo of the suspect seen shirtless on the ground with his hands restrained behind his back.
“The man has been captured. They’ve gone to his apartment,” Trump said. He added that the suspect is in his 30s and from California.
“He’s a sick person, a very sick person, and we don’t want things like this to happen,” Trump added.
