The shooter who fired at least eight shots at Donald Trump is dead, with a rallygoer also killed in Saturday’s shocking bloodbath.

Butler County District Attorney Richard Goldinger broke the news to reporters after the atrocity at a Trump rally at Butler Farm Show Grounds in Butler, Pennsylvania.

Neither the identity of the shooter nor the bystander who also died has been released.

In the moments after the shooting, voices could be heard screaming ‘The shooter is down’ as Trump dived to the floor and frightened rallygoers screamed with fear.

The 45th president was seen ducking down with blood coming from his ear. He pumped his fist in the air to indicate that he was fine while surrounded by Secret Service agents before being led away.

Team Trump says the former president is ‘fine’ and that further detail would follow soon.

A medical helicopter was seen taking off from the rally site 19 minutes after the shooting and is believed to be headed for a hospital in nearby Pittsburgh, The New York Times reported.
