Dramatic video shows gunman trying to rush past security at White House Correspondentsâ Dinner
WASHINGTON â Chilling security footage released by President Trump shows the wild moment that a gunman attempted to rush past security at the White House Correspondentsâ Dinner.
The sicko, whom sources have identified as Cole Allen of Torrance, Calif., was shown in the blurry footage sprinting past multiple security officers, as agents drew their guns and pursued him.
The entrance to the Washington Hilton, which hosts the feted dinner, was subject to a loose check, where officials ensured attendees had tickets for the marquee dinner or a party beforehand.

To enter the hotelâs ballroom, where the main course takes place, attendees must go through magnetometer screenings and security checks.
There was no security screening beyond the screening in the immediate perimeter before entering the ballroom, which has been the case at past White House Correspondentsâ Dinners for decades.
