WASHINGTON (AP) — Officer shot in bullet-resistant vest at correspondents' dinner but is expected to be OK, law enforcement official says.

Education Secretary Linda McMahon being ushered out of the WHCD just now:

!! Trump says shooter apprehended “Quite an evening in D.C. Secret Service and Law Enforcement did a fantastic job. They acted quickly and bravely. The shooter has been apprehended, and I have recommended that we “LET THE SHOW GO ON” but, will entirely be guided by Law Enforcement. They will make a decision shortly. Regardless of that decision, the evening will be much different than planned, and we’ll just, plain, have to do it again. President DONALD J. TRUMP”

We will provide updates as they become available and confirm information. Our teams are on the ground assessing the situation and investigating. All of our protectees are safe.
