Republican presidential candidate Donald Trump is safe following gunshots reported in his vicinity, according to a statement released by his campaign on Sunday.
The brief statement provided little detail, only confirming that Trump was unharmed in the incident. “No further details are available at this time,” the campaign added.
The exact location of Trump at the time of the reported gunshots has not yet been confirmed. Reuters was unable to determine where Trump was when the campaign issued its statement.
It remains unclear if Trump was directly targeted or if the gunshots were part of an unrelated event.

This incident follows a previous attempt on Trump’s life earlier this year. On July 13, Trump was injured during an assassination attempt in Pennsylvania.
Trump, who is running for the Republican nomination for president in the 2024 election, has continued to hold rallies and public appearances despite concerns over his security. The former president remains a central figure in the GOP race, with his campaign drawing significant attention from both supporters and opponents.
The July 13 assassination attempt raised concerns about Trump’s safety on the campaign trail. While his campaign has not released specifics about the measures taken to ensure his protection, security is likely to be a heightened focus in light of these incidents.
This is not the first time Trump has faced threats during his political career. As both a candidate and as president, he has been a frequent target of security concerns. However, the recent increase in violent incidents near Trump has led to renewed calls for enhanced safety protocols at his events.
At this time, authorities have not released any information regarding the investigation into the gunshots reported near Trump on Sunday. It is unclear if anyone has been apprehended or if there is an active search for suspects. Law enforcement agencies have not issued any public statements concerning the incident.
Trump’s campaign has also not provided any additional details about the shooting or whether it has affected his upcoming events. The candidate’s schedule includes several appearances in key battleground states as he continues to build momentum for his presidential run.
In the aftermath of the July 13 incident, Trump’s campaign reiterated its commitment to moving forward despite the challenges posed by security concerns. “We will not be intimidated,” a spokesperson for the campaign said at the time. “President Trump remains focused on delivering his message to the American people.”
As the 2024 election approaches, Trump’s security will likely remain a major issue, particularly as he continues to draw large crowds and maintain a prominent role in the Republican primary.
The campaign has not indicated if any additional security measures will be taken following Sunday’s incident. However, given the recent assassination attempt and the latest gunshot reports, it is expected that Trump’s security team will be on high alert in the coming weeks.
For now, Trump’s supporters and campaign staff will be relieved to know that the candidate is safe and unharmed following this latest event. Further updates are anticipated as more information becomes available.
