WASHINGTON A federal review of witness and agent statements about last weekends shootout at the White House Correspondents' Association Dinner is consistent with the suspected gunman being the one who shot a Secret Service agent, according to a law enforcement official briefed on the investigation.
Evidence thus far indicates the only Secret Service agent who actually fired their weapon was the one who was injured as he tried to prevent what prosecutors say was an attempt to assassinate President Donald Trump and other administration officials.
That agent, who has not been identified, fired five times while trying to stop suspect Cole Tomas Allen after he breached an initial security barrier at the event at the Washington Hilton hotel, Acting Attorney General Todd Blanche said at an April 27 news briefing.
The weapons of all of the other Secret Service agents at the scene were checked, and were never fired, according to the law enforcement source, who spoke on the condition of anonymity to discuss an ongoing investigation that is being conducted by the FBI and Secret Service.
