WE GOT DOWN, WE GOT DOWN AND WE HUDDLED AND WE STARTED PRAYING. >> PRAYERS CAME AMID ABSOLUTE PANDEMONIUM AT THE PENNSYLVANIA VENUE AS PEOPLE HUDDLED IN TERROR AND CONFUSION. TRUMP'S DEFIED AND FIST EMERGED FROM A TANGLE OF SECRET SERVICE AGENTS WITH BLOOD RUNNING DOWN HIS CHEEK. AGENTS WHISKED AN INJURED PRESIDENT INTO A WAITING MOTORCADE, WHILE PEOPLE IN THE CROWD TRIED TO FIGURE OUT WHERE THE THREAT WAS COMING FROM. IT WAS LITTLE. >> IT WAS VERY CONFUSING INITIALLY BECAUSE, YOU KNOW, I KNEW IT WAS GUNFIRE, BUT I COULDN'T QUITE TELL WHERE IT WAS COMING FROM. IT'S NOT LIKE IT WAS COMING FROM BEHIND THE BLEACHERS. >> SECRET SERVICE SAYS BULLETS HIT AT LEAST THREE MORE PEOPLE IN THE AUDIENCE WITNESS US SAY ONE OF THEM APPEARED TO DIE INSTANTLY. >> A MAN IN THE BLEACHERS, UM, KIND OF TO THE RIGHT OF ME IN THE BLEACHERS, TOOK A GUNSHOT WOUND TO THE HEAD. UM, WAS KILLED. AND ANOTHER WOMAN, I DON'T KNOW EXACTLY WHERE SHE WAS AT. I THINK SHE WAS EITHER BEHIND ME OR TO THE RIGHT OF ME. SHE GOT AROUND IN THE. SHE GOT HIT IN THE FOREARM AND HAND.

AND THEN I HELPED CARRY THE BODY OF THE MAN DOWN OUT OF THE BLEACHERS, AND THEY TOOK HIM TO A TENT. >> WORD QUICKLY REACHED PRESIDENT BIDEN AT HIS PRIVATE HOME IN DELAWARE. >> THERE'S NO PLACE IN AMERICA FOR THIS KIND OF VIOLENCE. IT'S SICK. IT'S SICK. IT'S ONE OF THE REASONS WHY WE HAVE TO UNITE THIS COUNTRY FOR A PRESIDENT WHO'S BEEN STRUGGLING TO UNITE HIS OWN PARTY AND HAS BLAMED THE FORMER PRESIDENT FOR INCITING POLITICAL VIOLENCE IN THE PAST, BIDEN WAS CLEAR THE RALLY THAT HE SHOULD HAVE BEEN ABLE TO BE CONDUCTED PEACEFULLY WITHOUT ANY PROBLEM. >> REPORTER. NOW THE FBI IS LEADING THE INVESTIGATION INTO AN ASSASSINATION ATTEMPT ON A FORMER PRESIDENT. AS REPUBLICANS BEGIN GATHERING IN MILWAUKEE TO RALLY AROUND THEIR STANDARD BEARER. >> I THINK, YOU KNOW, WHEN YOU SEE SOMEBODY WHO'S LITERALLY PUTTING THEIR LIFE ON THE LINE FOR YOU, I THINK IT'S ONLY SAFE TO SAY WE SHOULD BE AT LEAST PUTTING OUR EGOS, LAYING OUR EGOS ASIDE AND PUT IT ALL OF OUR FOR SUPPORT BEHIND HIM. SO COME OUT OF THE CLOSET AND SUPPORT THE MAN THAT'S WILLING TO DO WHATEVER IT TAKES. TONIGHT LAW ENFORCEMENT OFFICIALS TELL ABC NEWS THE GUNMAN WHO FIRED THOSE SHOTS FROM AN AR 15 STYLE RIFLE WAS KILLED BY A SECRET SERVICE COUNTER SNIPER. >> THE LOCAL DISTRICT ATTORNEY IN BUTLER COUNTY, PENNSYLVANIA, SAYS ONE RALLY ATTENDEE HAS DIED .
