一名白宫记者晚宴的参会者在周六晚枪手冲过安检点时正身处宴会厅外,她表示嫌疑人在被逮捕前“直接倒在我脚边”。

“我甚至不用往前迈一步就能碰到他,”空军退伍军人艾琳·蒂尔曼说道,“我当时只要弯下腰就能碰到他。”

蒂尔曼表示,当嫌疑人科尔·艾伦冲向活动现场时,她正走出华盛顿希尔顿酒店的宴会厅给儿子打电话。

蒂尔曼立刻行动起来。她说她跑下楼梯,看到宴会厅的门“大开着”,便开始将门关上。

“我非常担心,因为宴会厅里有我国的继位官员,而我不知道他们当时是否了解情况,”她说道。

特朗普总统、副总统JD·万斯以及特朗普政府其他高级官员出席了这场共有2500名嘉宾参与的年度晚宴。

法庭文件显示,艾伦并未如最初所推测的那样被安保人员扑倒。美国司法部周一举行的新闻发布会上,代理司法部长托德·布兰奇表示,艾伦“未被枪击,而是倒在地上并被迅速逮捕”。

官员们表示,艾伦当时携带了一把霰弹枪、一把手枪以及多把刀具。一份联邦宣誓书提到,艾伦据称在枪击发生前几分钟向家人发送了一封题为《道歉与说明》的邮件,其中表明他打算以“按从高到低排序的政府官员”为目标。

艾伦被指控企图暗杀总统,同时还面临两项与枪支相关的罪名。他于周一首次出庭,但未作出认罪答辩。

An attendee of the White House Correspondents’ Dinner who was outside the ballroom when a gunman ran through a security checkpoint Saturday night said the suspect “fell right at my feet” before he was arrested.

“I would not have had to take a step forward to touch him,” Air Force veteran Erin Thielman said. “I could’ve just bent down to touch him.”

Thielman said she stepped out of the ballroom at the Washington Hilton to call her son as the suspect, Cole Allen, rushed toward the event.

Thielman sprang into action. She said she ran down the stairs and seeing that the doors to the ballroom were “wide open,” she began closing them.

“I was very concerned because we had the line of succession to our country in the ballroom, and I didn’t know what they knew,” she said.

President Trump, Vice President JD Vance and other top Trump administration officials were in attendance at the annual gala, which hosted 2,500 guests.

Court documents say Allen wasn’t tackled by security as initially believed. During a press conference on Monday held by the Department of Justice, acting Attorney General Todd Blanche said Allen “was not shot but fell to the ground and was promptly arrested.”

Officials said Allen was carrying a shotgun, pistol and a variety of knives. A federal affidavit cited a document Allen allegedly emailed to family minutes before the shooting titled “Apology and explanation,” which expressed his intent to target “administration officials prioritized from highest-ranking to lowest.”

Allen was charged with attempting to assassinate the president. He also faces two firearms-related charges. He made his first court appearance on Monday, but did not enter a plea.
