Video shows Trump supporters helping assassination attempt victim wounded by gunshots
EXCLUSIVE – A new video obtained by Fox News Digital shows two victims who suffered gunshot wounds at the Trump rally in Butler, Pennsylvania, on Saturday being escorted off a bleacher stand.
David "Jake" Dutch, a 57-year-old Marine Corps veteran who was shot twice, can be seen walking down the bleachers while holding a T-shirt to his torso. The video also shows U.S. Secret Security agents escorting the former president off a stage and out of the crowded venue.
"Over here!" one person shouts. "Medic! Medic! Medic!" yells another.
Two officers promptly climb the bleachers and reach the victims before escorting them out of the area. Fox News Digital has not confirmed the identity of the second victim being carried out of the venue.

"If you didn't already know he was a Marine, you'd never know it," Roger Milliron Jr., who said he's known Dutch for 20 years, told Fox News Digital. "He isn't a loud or boisterous person. He keeps to himself. He is a hard worker. He's a friend."
