WASHINGTON (AP) — Federal prosecutors released a video Thursday showing the moment authorities say an armed man tried to storm the White House Correspondents’ Association dinner and attempt to kill President Donald Trump.
Jeanine Pirro, the top federal prosecutor for Washington, posted the video on social media. She said it shows Cole Allen Tomas shooting a U.S. Secret Service officer as he runs through security toward the gala packed with journalists, administration officials and others.
Pirro said there is no evidence that the agent was hit by friendly fire.
