    He quickly ducked behind the riser as agents from his protective detail rushed the stage and screams rang out from the crowd. The bangs continued as agents tended to him on stage.

    The crowd cheered as he got back up and pumped his fist.

    His motorcade has left the venue. His condition was not immediately known.

    Police began vacating the fairgrounds shortly after Trump left the stage.

    The U.S. Secret Service and other law enforcement agencies did not immediately respond to messages.

    Leaving Mass in Rehoboth Beach, President Joe Biden simply responded, “No,” when asked if he’d been briefed about the incident.
