The shooter who attacked the White House Correspondents' Dinner on Saturday charged a security checkpoint set up near the entrance of the main ballroom, a conservative pundit recounted. "The shooter charged the magnetometer closest to the front door," conservative pundit Sean Hannity told Fox News shortly after the chaos, which cut the dinner short and led to the evacuation of everyone at the head table, including Trump. "How did he get up to that point?" Hannity asked. "What we can tell you, was that this was multiple shots at the closest magnetometer closest to the door." "Everyone is okay," Hannity added. The shooter was in custody, despite earlier reports that he had been killed at the scene.
