Breaking News: “No Iran connection,” says Trump after high-profile attack

Statements by Donald Trump following a shooting at a high-profile dinner event in Washington’s Hilton Hotel ballroom. Trump addressed questions about a possible Iran connection, stating that he does not believe the attacker was linked to Iran or the ongoing conflict, though investigations are still underway. Authorities have identified the suspect as Cole Thomas, a 31-year-old resident of California, and described the incident as a “lone wolf” attack carried out by a single individual. During the shooting, panic spread across the venue, with guests taking cover under tables. A security officer was injured but is now reported to be in stable condition. Trump, First Lady Melania Trump, and Vice President J.D. Vance were safely evacuated by the Secret Service. Law enforcement has reached the suspect’s residence and is gathering further details about his background, motives, and any potential connections, which are expected to emerge as the investigation progresses.
