President Donald Trump said a “shooter has been apprehended” as he and other guests were evacuated from the White House Correspondents’ Association dinner on Saturday. At a news conference at the White House, Trump described the gunman as a “lone wolf” and said he was “taken down by some very brave members of Secret Service, and they acted very quickly.” One officer was shot but was protected by a vest, Trump said. “The vest did the job,” he added. The suspect, who officials said was not shot, was transported to Howard University Hospital, according to multiple people aware of the transfer.
