Former President Donald Trump stood inches away from death Saturday as a shooter’s bullet grazed his ear right before Secret Service agents took the former president down to the ground, later helping him off the stage and to a local hospital. Trump did not suffer significant injury.

Trump’s security, however, failed to react sufficiently to halt the shooter from firing, taking him down only after he shot and killed a person in the audience and injured Trump along with two others.
