Eyes wide from shock, journalist Selina Wang took a few seconds to compose herself and then duck for cover as shots rang out at a White House security checkpoint on Sunday. She was in the middle of shooting a video inside the premises when the incident was reported.
ABC News’ Wang was among the many reporters on the premises at the time of the shooting outside, following which Secret Service shot the suspect. “It sounded like dozens of gunshots,” she said on X.
Confused by the commotion, NBC News’ Julie Tirskin asked, “What is that?” Her cameraperson kept rolling. Another reporter on the White House North Lawn was talking about prices, when he heard the shots. He removed the audio wire on him and took cover.
