SARAH FERGUSON: Rico, could you start by telling us why you were there at the Trump event at the Butler Showgrounds?
SARAH FERGUSON: You were seated very close to the front, where President Trump was going to speak. What was the atmosphere like before he came on? SARAH FERGUSON: Now, everything was normal for the first five or six minutes into Donald Trump's speech. Then you heard a popping sound? When I arrived on the bleachers and went to the victim, I was able to get a towel from one of the ladies that was there and I held the towel against the victim's head, and another gentleman, I believe he was a doctor, tried to provide CPR.
Everyone was going hysterical. Everyone was confused. They didn't know what was going on. They were, everyone was so, they were panicking. There were kids who were just staring because they were in shock, in awe, about what happened, what was going on, that I had to pick kids up and carry them down the steps, and their parents - I mean, me and other people, we picked up grown adults, put them on our shoulders, and carried them down the bleachers because they were just in shock.
