Former President Trump Grazed by Bullet at Rally: Bears Pawnder What's Next

In a bearly believable turn of events, former President Donald Trump was almost turned into a human piñata at a rally in Butler, Pennsylvania on Saturday, July 13, 2024. The ex-POTUS was grazing more than just political topics when he was hit by a bullet in his right ear. We guess it's better to be ear-resistible than un-bear-able!

The would-be assassin, 20-year-old Thomas Matthew Crooks of Bethel Park, Pennsylvania, decided to give a whole new meaning to the term "bear arms" by opening fire from a rooftop with an AR-style weapon. The bear necessities of life were clearly on Trump's side, as he was only lightly grazed, though he left the scene looking like a bear post-berry feast—covered in blood.
