President Donald Trump sought to return to the White House Correspondents' Dinner venue, but security officials prevented him from doing so.
CNN reported on April 25 that Trump expressed a desire to go back to the event after being moved to a secure location following the shooting. An administration official said the Secret Service was barring his return because of safety concerns.
At the scene, Secret Service agents shouted "shots fired" and responded immediately. Some drew their weapons, and radio communications shared that a suspect had been taken into custody.
The incident heightened tensions because it occurred at the Washington Hilton, where former President Ronald Reagan was shot in 1981. Reagan suffered severe injuries at the time, including a punctured lung and internal bleeding.
The hotel remains under Secret Service control, and authorities are investigating the exact circumstances of the incident.
