An emergency room doctor in the audience at Donald Trump’s Pennsylvania campaign rally rushed to the aid of a seriously injured rally-goer after a sniper aimed at the former president rained a hail of bullets on the unsuspecting crowd.
“I heard gunshots and I thought it was firecrackers at first and then someone over there yelling, ‘He’s been shot, he’s been shot,'” he told a CBS News reporter outside the rally, wearing a “Make America Great Again” baseball cap and a blood-stained white “USA” shirt.
A grim doctor recounted that he walked to the injured man and found him “crushed” between the stands at the rally, shot in the head and bleeding badly, with “parts of his brain” visible.
He said with the help of other rally attendees, he was able to get the man to level ground and administer CPR.
It was not immediately clear whether the man authorities said was killed by the gunman at the Butler Farm Show in Butler, Pennsylvania, and whether the seriously injured spectator were the same person.
