日本北部山区发生山火，当局已部署1400名消防员和100名自卫队人员，全力展开灭火行动。
路透社报道，这场大火已连续燃烧五天，星期天（4月26日）持续延烧。截至星期天清晨，火患面积已达1373公顷，比前一天增加了7%。
这场大火威胁着太平洋沿岸大槌町的居民区。该镇在2011年3月日本历史上最严重的地震和海啸之一，失去了近十分之一的人口。
目前，约3233名居民已被下达疏散令，约占镇上人口的三分之一。
当局说，虽然自卫队使用直升机灭火，但干燥的天气和大风助长了火势蔓延。
日本消防厅在网站上说，所幸目前只有一名在避难中心摔倒的人员受轻伤。
据日本气象厅预报，这个地区星期天和星期一（27日）预计不会有降雨，但星期二（28日）会有短暂阵雨。
尚不清楚起火原因，当局仍在调查中。

中国原外经贸部（商务部前身）副部长、博鳌亚洲论坛前秘书长龙永图表示，中美两国肯定会有分歧甚至冲突。但是只要能加强沟通，哪怕最困难的时候也能坐在一起，就可以减少许多误判，从而使关系保持一个理性、稳定的状态。
据中新社报道，第十二届中国与全球化研讨会星期天（4月26日）在北京举行。龙永图在会上表示，中美是全球最大的两个经济体，中美关系好，有利于全球化发展。
他指出，目前中美两国虽然还有很多分歧，但由于双方力量对比日益缩小，也有通过交流寻求共同利益的愿望，因此他对两国关系前景保持乐观。
龙永图认为，中美两国必须互相尊重、平等相待。他并指出，在重视实际利益的现实当中，强者和弱者不太可能相互尊重。
不过，这些年来中国迅速发展，特别在新兴技术力量的推动下，中美两国硬实力和软实力的差距都在缩小，两国相互尊重、平等相待有了基础。
龙永图也强调加强沟通、减少误判的重要性。他认为，由于历史文化、社会制度和意识形态的不同，中美两国肯定会有分歧甚至冲突。
不过，只要能够加强沟通，哪怕最困难的时候也能坐在一起，龙永图认为，中美就可以减少许多误判，从而使关系保持一个理性、稳定的状态。
龙永图说，尽管“世界大得很，事情复杂得很”，但中美两国总能从错综复杂的利益交织当中找到共同的利益。他指出，共同的利益找到了，双方就可能建立一个稳定、健康、可持续的关系。

当地时间周六晚，白宫记者晚宴现场传出枪声，宴会厅内陷入混乱，而在场宾客中有不少此前已经经历过政治暴力事件。
周六晚宴正式开场之际，唐纳德·特朗普总统在华盛顿希尔顿酒店的宴会厅被紧急带离。现场视频显示，随着恐慌在会场蔓延，参会嘉宾纷纷躲到桌子底下。
对于多名此前生活就因政治暴力发生改变的参会者而言，这一时刻更具特殊意义，其中包括特朗普、卫生与公众服务部长小罗伯特·F·肯尼迪、众议院多数党领袖史蒂夫·斯卡利斯以及美国转折点组织CEO埃丽卡·柯克。
“那些能产生最大影响力的人，才是枪手的目标，”特朗普周六晚间在白宫举行的新闻发布会上说道，“他们不会去找那些没什么作为的人，因为他们就喜欢那样。”
2024年7月13日，在宾夕法尼亚州巴特勒市巴特勒农业展览中心举行的竞选集会上，唐纳德·特朗普前总统脸上沾着血迹挥手致意。当时特朗普在开始演讲后，现场传出异响，他随即被带离舞台。（贾宾·博茨福德/《华盛顿邮报》/盖蒂图片社）
特朗普本人此前已多次遭遇生命威胁。
2024年特朗普曾遭遇两起暗杀企图：第一起发生在宾夕法尼亚州巴特勒，2024年7月13日的一场集会上，一名枪手爬上屋顶，子弹擦伤了他的耳朵。
“巴特勒那场袭击有个我们都清楚的致命漏洞。本该有人在屋顶值守，但即便在巴特勒，我们也有己方狙击手。在大约400码的距离外，仅用4.2秒就开了一枪，然后枪手就被制服了，”特朗普说道。
几周后又发生了第二起事件：佛罗里达州西棕榈滩的特朗普国际高尔夫俱乐部，当时特朗普正在场内，一名携带步枪的嫌疑人在球场附近被发现。此次事件中特朗普并未受伤。

会场内其他嘉宾也都有过政治暴力相关的经历，让这一时刻的紧张感进一步升级。

据卫生与公众服务部一名官员向福克斯新闻数字频道透露，卫生与公众服务部长小罗伯特·F·肯尼迪——总统约翰·F·肯尼迪（JFK）的侄子——在周六当晚被迅速护离现场。他的家族历史与两起惨烈的暗杀事件紧密相连。
1963年11月22日，约翰·F·肯尼迪在德克萨斯州达拉斯市的敞篷总统车队中遇刺身亡，当时他正在参加连任竞选活动。
查理·柯克遇刺后，多年来针对保守派活动人士的校园袭击事件再次浮出水面
五年后，时任司法部长的肯尼迪部长的父亲在赢得加州民主党总统初选并发表获胜演讲后遭枪击。他身中三枪，其中头部的一枪致命。
同样，众议院多数党领袖史蒂夫·斯卡利斯在2017年6月14日的共和党国会棒球训练中，与另外三人一同遭枪击。枪手是佛蒙特州联邦参议员伯尼·桑德斯的支持者，随后被警方击毙。
斯卡利斯臀部中弹，伤势严重，最终康复并在数月后重返国会。
“我非常感谢勇敢的执法人员迅速行动，保护了今晚所有参加白宫记者晚宴的人。这场活动本应是促进人们团结的场合。暴力在我国没有容身之地，”斯卡利斯在X平台上发文称。
据报道，美国转折点组织CEO埃丽卡·柯克在枪击发生后冲出宴会厅，在后台哭泣。柯克也经历过个人悲剧：她的丈夫于2025年9月在犹他谷大学举行的美国转折点组织活动上发表演讲时遇刺身亡。

福克斯新闻数字频道已联系肯尼迪和斯卡利斯置评。
特朗普周六晚间在白宫的新闻发布会上称赞了执法部门，称此次事件“特勤局和执法部门的反应极为迅速”。
“（嫌疑人）本可以长驱直入。那才是真正的第一道防线。他们成功抓获了他。说真的，他们的表现极其出色，”他补充道。
涉案枪手已被确认为来自加利福尼亚州的31岁男子科尔·艾伦，目前已被拘留。

Correspondents’ dinner chaos hits high-profile guests already marked by political violence

When shots rang out at the White House Correspondents’ Dinner on Saturday night, the chaos tore through a ballroom that included a handful of people who had already lived through political violence.
President Donald Trump was rushed from the ballroom at the Washington Hilton Hotel on Saturday evening, just as the dinner was kicking off in earnest, after apparent gunshots were heard. Video from inside the event showed attendees taking cover under tables as panic spread through the room.
The moment carried additional weight for several attendees whose lives had already been shaped by political violence, including Trump, Health and Human Services Secretary Robert F. Kennedy Jr., House Majority Leader Steve Scalise and TPUSA CEO Erika Kirk.
“The people that make the biggest impact, they’re the ones that shooters go after,” Trump said late on Saturday evening from a press conference at the White House. “They don’t go after the ones that don’t do much because they like it that way.”

Trump, himself, has faced repeated threats on his life.
There were two assassination attempts on Trump’s life in 2024, beginning in Butler, Pennsylvania, when a bullet grazed his ear after a gunman climbed onto a roof during a rally on July 13, 2024.
“Butler had one weak spot that we all know about. Somebody should have been up there, but even in Butler, we had our sniper on our side. Within 4.2 seconds, from a distance of about 400 yards, one shot, and he was gone,” said Trump.
A second incident unfolded just weeks later, at Trump International Golf Club in West Palm Beach, Florida, when a suspect with a rifle was discovered near the golf course while Trump was present. Trump was not injured during that incident.

Others in the room have also been shaped by political violence, bringing additional weight to the moment.

Health and Human Services Secretary Robert F. Kennedy Jr., the nephew of President John F. Kennedy (JFK), was swiftly escorted out of the room on Saturday, an HHS official told Fox News Digital. His family history is closely tied to two tragic assassinations.
JFK was assassinated on Nov. 22, 1963, while riding in an open-top motorcade in Dallas, Texas, during a re-election campaign event.
YEARS OF CAMPUS ATTACKS ON CONSERVATIVE ACTIVISTS RESURFACE AFTER CHARLIE KIRK’S MURDER
Five years later, the secretary’s father, then-Attorney General Robert F. Kennedy, was shot after he delivered a victory speech when he won the California Democratic presidential primary.
He was struck three times, including a fatal shot to the head.
Similarly, House Majority Leader Steve Scalise was among four people who were shot on June 14, 2017, at a Republican congressional baseball practice. The gunman, a supporter of Sen. Bernie Sanders, I-Vt., was shot and killed by police.
Scalise was shot in the hip, leaving him critically wounded. He eventually recovered and returned to Congress months later.
“I’m incredibly grateful for the brave members of law enforcement who acted quickly to protect all of us attending tonight’s White House Correspondents’ Dinner. This is an event meant to bring people together. Violence has NO place in our country,” Scalise posted to X.
Turning Point USA CEO Erika Kirk was reportedly seen crying backstage after she ran out of the ballroom following the shots fired. Kirk has also experienced personal tragedy when her husband was assassinated in September 2025 while speaking at a Turning Point USA event at Utah Valley University.

Fox News Digital reached out to Kennedy and Scalise for comment.
Trump hailed law enforcement during his press conference from the White House late on Saturday, saying the situation was “incredibly acted upon by Secret Service and law enforcement.”
“[The suspect] had a long way to go. That was really a first line of defense. And they got him. And they really, you know, they acted incredibly,” he continued.
The suspected gunman, identified as a 31-year-old Cole Allen of California, was taken into custody.

美国东部时间周六晚上8点30分刚过，唐纳德·特朗普总统与第一夫人梅拉尼娅·特朗普就已在华盛顿希尔顿酒店宽敞宴会厅的舞台上就座，正与当晚的娱乐嘉宾、心灵术士奥兹·珀尔曼轻松互动。
就在宴会厅外，一名男子手持霰弹枪冲过安检点，与随后追来的特勤局特工交火，据事件公布的监控录像显示。
短短几秒内，枪手就被特勤局制服——当时他本可闯入宴会厅，而那里正聚集着总统、特朗普政府官员、国会议员以及美国部分最知名的记者和编辑，共同出席年度白宫记者协会晚宴。

在人头攒动的宴会厅内，宾客们已就座，正享用布拉塔奶酪配黄瓜沙拉，这时他们意识到当晚的活动发生了可怕转折。宴会厅门外接连传来爆裂声，原本喧闹的交谈声迅速归于沉寂。
身处事发楼层下方的宴会厅内的人们起初并不清楚那是什么声响。就连总统本人也没能立刻弄清发生了什么。特朗普事后在白宫表示，他最初以为是一整托盘餐盘掉在了地上：“这种声音我听过很多次。”当时他仍身着晚宴礼服。
但当大批武装执法人员从各个入口涌入宴会厅时，人们才意识到发生了严重事件。“趴下”的呼喊声席卷全场，宾客和酒店服务员纷纷躲到椅子和桌子下方。
主桌几乎立刻被清空。副总统JD·万斯被从桌旁拉开，带往舞台左侧。据舞台侧面的视频显示，当持步枪的特工冲向舞台前方时，总统的特勤局安保团队将他团团围住。在撤离过程中，总统似乎短暂摔倒在地，随后与第一夫人被迅速带往酒店的安全房间。与他同坐一桌的人则被带到走廊另一侧的单独房间。

当时选择在主菜上桌前离开宴会厅的晚宴宾客，包括CNN的沃尔夫·布利策，不幸将自己置于了危险之中。布利策刚从宴会厅外的洗手间出来，就看到枪手就在离他几英尺远的地方。
“我开始听到紧邻我的走廊里传来枪声，紧接着一名警察就把我按倒在地，压在我身上，”布利策说道。“枪声震耳欲聋，令人恐惧，我们所有人都吓坏了。我们完全不知道发生了什么。”
这位CNN主播被带回男洗手间，他表示，自己和其他十几个人在那里躲避等待局势平息。
他在混乱中弄丢了一只鞋子。
据执法官员透露，枪手在冲向安检点时携带了一把霰弹枪、一把手枪和多把刀具。特朗普后来告诉记者，一名特勤局特工在交火中胸部中弹，由于穿着防弹背心，他被送往医院后并无大碍。
据公共记录显示，执法官员确认嫌疑枪手为科尔·托马斯·艾伦，现年31岁，来自洛杉矶郊区，职业为教师和视频游戏开发者。官员们表示，他是酒店的在册住客，看起来是单独行动。

华盛顿特区市长穆里尔·鲍瑟称，嫌疑人未被枪击击中，但正在当地一家医院接受治疗。
特朗普随后在社交媒体上公布了枪手冲过安检点的监控录像，以及嫌疑人被执法人员制服在地的照片。
回到宴会厅内，现场陷入沉寂，偶尔夹杂着惊呼声。一些晚宴宾客躲到椅子和桌子后面，而包括记者在内的许多人则掏出手机记录下这一历史性时刻。
作为新闻机构宾客前来的内阁成员——意味着他们分散在挤得水泄不通的宴会厅的各个桌席上——被各自的安保团队迅速带离现场，安保人员一边冲向宴会厅，一边对着通讯设备大声喊话。可以听到一名安保人员通过无线电高喊“发生枪击”。
警官们对宴会厅进行了搜查，有时甚至爬上椅子，大声喊出他们要带走的官员姓名，找到后便将其从人群中带出。被紧急带离的高级官员数量之多，凸显出有多少总统继任顺位人员、特朗普和万斯一同聚集在这个拥挤的场所。

当宾客们趴在地板上时，有人高声喊道：“上帝保佑美国。”
司法部官员哈米特·迪隆在X平台上表示，一名特勤局特工跑过她的桌子时，她的头部撞出了瘀伤，她感谢美国法警将她安全送回家。
最终，随着警官们撤离宴会厅，宾客们开始从地上起身。由于场地位于地下且人员拥挤，活动现场的手机信号极差（酒店确实提供了Wi-Fi——部分原因是方便宾客上网为各自的桌席购买更多葡萄酒）。但许多人仍尝试拨打新闻编辑部或家人的电话，告知最新情况。
这项年度活动在华盛顿希尔顿酒店举行，酒店位于白宫西北方向略超过一英里处。1981年，罗纳德·里根总统曾在该酒店外遭遇暗杀未遂枪击。
随着时间推移，宴会厅内的人们并不清楚活动是否还能继续。曾有一度，一名播音员鼓励宾客们稍作等候，甚至暗示牛排和龙虾主菜仍会上桌。
特朗普和白宫记者协会主席、CBS白宫记者蒋维佳最初都希望活动继续进行。蒋维佳告诉仍留在宴会厅的宾客，活动很快就会恢复。据一名政府官员透露，特朗普当时正身处酒店的一处安全地点，他希望返回晚宴现场。

但特勤局不同意这一做法——最终执法部门的观点占了上风。
“我拼尽全力想要留下，”特朗普在新闻发布会上说道，“但这是规程。”
距离枪手冲向安检点大约一小时后，特朗普宣布将返回白宫举行新闻发布会，此时酒店外已开始排起撤离队伍。方圆多个街区的安全警戒区域让撤离变得更加困难。
身着正装的白宫记者们冲到街拦下车辆，沿着康涅狄格大道驱车1.5英里赶回总统府。
当特朗普出现在詹姆斯·S·布雷迪新闻发布厅——该厅以1981年希尔顿酒店暗杀未遂事件中受伤的里根新闻秘书命名——时，他身旁站着万斯和他的高级执法官员。特朗普感谢了蒋维佳的工作，并表示奇怪的是，整场事件让满屋子的政治对手和媒体变得“完全团结”。
“这非常出人意料，但特勤局和执法部门的应对极为迅速，”特朗普说道。
在一旁，另一个人静静地听着：第一夫人梅拉尼娅，她和丈夫一样，被迅速带往酒店地下室的安全房间。
“对她来说那是一段相当创伤的经历，”特朗普承认，“当时上面很快就发生了很多状况。”
梅拉尼娅·特朗普并未出现在丈夫此前的两起暗杀未遂事件现场，分别是在宾夕法尼亚州巴特勒和佛罗里达州西棕榈滩。她长期以来一直对家人的安全表示担忧。对她而言，周六的事件让她职位所面临的安全风险变得尤为清晰。
“她无数次跟我说，‘你的工作很危险’，但这对她来说也一样危险。我的意思是，这对她来说也不安全，”特朗普说道。
后来，当一名记者问她是否愿意就当晚的事件发表看法时，她婉拒了。
How Washington’s biggest annual dinner transformed into chaos — and a crime scene

President Donald Trump and first lady Melania Trump were seated on the stage of the cavernous Washington Hilton ballroom just after 8:30 p.m. ET Saturday evening, playfully engaging with the evening’s entertainer, mentalist Oz Pearlman.
Just outside, a man sprinted through a security checkpoint with a shotgun in hand, exchanging fire with Secret Service agents who chased behind him, according to security footage released of the incident.
Within seconds, the gunman was subdued by Secret Service — before he could reach the ballroom where the president, Trump administration officials, members of Congress and some of the nation’s most prominent reporters and editors were all in attendance for the annual White House Correspondents’ Association Dinner.

Inside the jammed ballroom, guests had taken their seats and were picking away at burrata and cucumber salads when it became clear the evening had taken a frightening turn. Cracking sounds in quick succession from outside the ballroom doors caused the loud hum of conversation to quickly turn silent.
It wasn’t obvious to those inside the room — situated a level below where the incident occurred — what the sounds were. Even the president himself wasn’t immediately sure what had happened. Trump’s first thought was a tray full of dinner plates crashing to the floor: “I’ve heard that many times,” he would say later from the White House, still wearing his tuxedo from the event.
But as law enforcement agents, many armed, fanned into the room from all the entrances, it became obvious a serious incident had occurred. Shouts of “get down” swept across the ballroom as guests and hotel servers dived underneath chairs and tables to take cover.
The head table was cleared almost immediately. Vice President JD Vance was pulled back from the table and taken off to the left of the stage. As agents with rifles ran to the front of the stage, the president’s Secret Service detail surrounded him, according to video from the side of the stage. As he was being evacuated, the president appeared to briefly fall to the floor before he and the first lady were whisked to a secure room in the hotel. Those sitting alongside him were taken to a separate room down the hall.

Dinner attendees who had chosen that moment to leave the ballroom before the main course was served, including CNN’s Wolf Blitzer, had unfortunately put themselves in harm’s way. Blitzer had just left a restroom outside the ballroom when he saw the gunman just feet away from him.
“I start hearing gunshots in the hall right near me, and the next thing I knew, a police officer threw me to the ground and was on top of me,” Blitzer said. “The gunshots were so loud, so frightening that it scared all of us. We had no idea what was going on.”
The CNN anchor was taken back into the men’s restroom, where he and more than a dozen others sheltered in place, he said.
He lost a shoe in the commotion.
As the gunman charged the checkpoint, he was armed with a shotgun, a handgun and multiple knives, according to law enforcement officials. A Secret Service agent was shot in the chest during the exchange of gunfire and was OK after being taken to a hospital thanks to the bulletproof vest he was wearing, Trump later told reporters.
The suspected gunman was identified by law enforcement officials as Cole Tomas Allen, a 31-year-old from a Los Angeles suburb who worked as a teacher and video game developer, according to public records. Officials said that he was a registered guest at the hotel and appeared to have acted alone.

The suspect was not struck by gunfire but was receiving treatment as a local hospital, according to Washington, DC, Mayor Muriel Bowser.
Trump later on social media released the security footage of the gunman racing through the security checkpoint, as well as a photo of the suspect subdued by law enforcement on the floor.
Back in the ballroom, silence took hold, punctuated by occasional gasps. Some dinner attendees ducked behind chairs and tables, while many — reporters among them — pulled out their phones to capture the historic moment.
Cabinet members who came as guests of news organizations — meaning they were scattered at tables across the tightly packed ballroom — were hurried from the room by their own security details, who barked into their communication devices as they rushed from the banquet hall. One could be heard declaring “shots fired” into his radio.
Officers combed the room, in some instances mounting chairs to call out the names of officials they were looking to remove before finding them and plucking them from the crowd. The number of high-ranking officials being rushed out illustrated just how many people in the line of presidential succession, along with Trump and Vance, were gathered in one crowded place.

As guests flattened themselves on the floor, one voice called out: “God bless America.”
Justice Department official Harmeet Dhillon said on X that she had a bruise on her head from a Secret Service agent running across her table, thanking the US Marshals for getting her home safely.
Eventually, as officers exited the room, guests began to rise from the floor. Underground and crowded, cell phone service at the event was notoriously bad (the hotel did provide Wi-Fi — partly so attendees could go online to buy more wine for their tables). But many tried placing calls to newsrooms or family members with updates.
The annual event takes place at the Washington Hilton, located a little more than a mile northwest of the White House. President Ronald Reagan was shot outside the hotel in an assassination attempt in 1981.
As the evening progressed, it wasn’t clear inside the room whether the program would proceed. At one point, an announcer encouraged guests to stand by, even suggesting the steak and lobster course would still be served.
Both Trump and the White House Correspondents Association president, CBS White House correspondent Weijia Jiang, initially wanted to continue with the program. Jiang told those still in the ballroom that the program would be resuming shortly. Trump, meanwhile, was holding in a secure location in the hotel and wanted to return to the venue, according to an administration official.

But Secret Service did not want him to — and the law enforcement view ultimately won out.
“I fought like hell to stay,” Trump said at his press conference. “But it’s protocol.”
By the time Trump announced he would be returning to the White House to deliver a press conference — almost exactly an hour after the shooter had charged the security checkpoint — lines had begun forming to exit the hotel. A security perimeter many blocks wide made leaving more difficult.
White House reporters in formal wear scrambled outside to flag down cars, racing the mile and a half back down Connecticut Avenue to the executive mansion.
When Trump emerged in the James S. Brady briefing room — named for Reagan’s press secretary who was wounded in that 1981 assassination attempt at the Hilton — he was flanked by Vance and his top law enforcement officials. Trump thanked Jiang for her work and said that the whole ordeal had, strangely enough, caused the room full of political adversaries and the press to become “totally unified.”
“It was very unexpected, but incredibly acted upon by Secret Service and law enforcement,” Trump said.
Off to the side, another individual was listening quietly: the first lady, who like her husband had been whisked into the secure room in the hotel basement.
“That was a rather traumatic experience for her,” Trump acknowledged. “There was a lot of action taking place up there very quickly.”
Melania Trump was not at her husband’s side during two previous assassination attempts, in Butler, Pennsylvania, and in West Palm Beach, Florida. She has long voiced concern for her family’s safety. For her, Saturday’s incident placed the security risks of her position into sharp focus.
“She’s told me numerous times, she said, ‘You are in a dangerous job,’ but that goes along with her too. I mean, it’s dangerous for her too,” Trump said.
Later, when a reporter asked if she might offer her own thoughts on the evening, she demurred.

美国总统特朗普计划在华盛顿著名的林肯纪念堂倒影池底部的石材地板上铺设一层新表层，采用“最新、最先进的纤维材料”制成，呈现“美国国旗蓝”的色调。
法新社报道，特朗普上周告诉记者，这项工程是首都华盛顿为迎接7月4日美国建国250周年庆典而进行的整修项目之一，预计耗资约150万美元（约191万新元），工期约三周。不过，他在社媒发文说，工程将进行仅一周。
他称，位于华盛顿纪念碑和林肯纪念堂之间的这座长610米的倒影池“状况糟糕”。
他在白宫发布的一段关于该计划的视频中说：“它肮脏不堪，多年来一直漏水，就像筛子一样。”
不过，他强调，自己拒绝更换池底石材的提议，该方案耗资3亿美元，工期三年。相反，他联系以前合作过的承包商，对方称利用泳池表面材料成本更低，工期也更短。
他将这个项目称为“一项商业研究”，并称“我在不同的建筑里建造过100多个游泳池”。
他说，承包商已经清理了池底，并开始浇筑“工业级”材料，几天内就能完工。“你们最终会得到一个非常非常漂亮的倒影池，它本来就应该如此。比以前好得多。”
这座倒影池建于1922年至1923年，如今已成为美国首都的重要地标。1963年，民权运动领袖马丁·路德·金在倒影池畔发表著名的“我有一个梦想”演讲。

有关周六晚间在特朗普总统及其他高级官员出席的白宫记者晚宴举办宴会厅外开枪的嫌疑人的细节正逐步浮出水面。当局表示，总统与第一夫人梅拉尼娅·特朗普已被安全撤离，在场人员均未受重伤。
官员透露，一名特勤局特工被枪手射出的至少一发子弹击中，但该特工身穿防弹衣，预计无大碍。
执法部门消息人士向CBS新闻确认，嫌疑人是来自加州托兰斯的31岁科尔·艾伦，已于现场被逮捕。
官员尚未公布嫌疑人的作案动机，但两名消息人士向CBS新闻透露，嫌疑人被捕后向执法人员表示，他想要枪击特朗普政府官员。
两名执法部门消息人士向CBS新闻透露，事件期间共响起至少5至8声枪响。
在深夜举行的新闻发布会上，华盛顿特区大都会警察局代理局长杰夫·卡罗尔表示，嫌疑人企图冲击华盛顿希尔顿酒店晚宴外的安全检查站，当时他携带有一把霰弹枪、一把手枪以及多把刀具。
特朗普总统在社交媒体上发布了一张照片，显示被捕后双手被反绑在身后、赤裸上身的嫌疑人躺在酒店地板上。

卡罗尔称，嫌疑人未被枪击击中，但已被送往医院接受检查。
他表示，嫌疑人是该酒店的住客，但未透露其入住时间，也未说明对其房间的搜查结果。
“目前看来，他似乎是单独行动的独行枪手，”卡罗尔说，并补充道调查仍在进行中。
特朗普总统在白宫另一场新闻发布会上对记者表示，据信嫌疑人以“独狼”式动机作案。
两名执法部门消息人士向CBS新闻证实，艾伦曾在托兰斯一家名为C2教育的补习公司工作。他在2024年12月获得了该公司颁发的“月度教师”奖。
目前尚不清楚他是否仍受雇于该公司。托兰斯联合学区在一份声明中向CBS新闻表示，艾伦从未受雇于该学区。
加州理工学院在一封邮件中向CBS新闻确认，艾伦于2017年从该校毕业，但未提供更多细节。
周六深夜，联邦和地方执法人员出现在托兰斯一处据称属于嫌疑人的住宅外。太平洋时间当晚约10:30，CBS新闻洛杉矶分社的航拍视频显示联邦探员进入该住宅。

华盛顿特区联邦检察官珍妮娜·皮尔罗周六晚间宣布，艾伦将因在暴力犯罪中使用枪支、以及使用危险武器袭击联邦官员各面临一项指控。皮尔罗表示，随着调查推进，预计还会对其提出更多指控。
“根据目前掌握的情况，显然该个体意图造成尽可能多的伤害和破坏，”皮尔罗说。
皮尔罗表示，艾伦将于周一在联邦法院接受传讯。

Suspect in shooting at White House Correspondents’ Dinner identified as 31-year-old California man
April 26, 2026 / 1:54 AM EDT / CBS News
By Faris Tanyos
Faris Tanyos is a news editor for CBSNews.com, where he writes and edits stories and tracks breaking news. He previously worked as a digital news producer at several local news stations up and down the West Coast.
Details are beginning to emerge about the suspect who opened fire outside the ballroom where President Trump and other top officials were attending the White House Correspondents’ Dinner Saturday night. The president and first lady Melania Trump were safely evacuated, and none of the attendees were seriously injured, authorities said.
A Secret Service agent was struck by at least one round fired by the shooter, but the agent was protected by a bulletproof vest and is expected to be OK, officials said.
The suspect, identified to CBS News by law enforcement sources as 31-year-old Cole Allen of Torrance, California, was apprehended at the scene.
Officials have not released information on the suspect’s possible motive, but two sources told CBS News that he told law enforcement following his arrest that he wanted to shoot Trump administration officials.
A total of at least five to eight gunshots were fired during the incident, two law enforcement sources told CBS News.
In a late-night news conference, Jeff Carroll, interim chief of the D.C. Metropolitan Police Department, said the suspect was armed with a shotgun, handgun and multiple knives when he attempted to charge a security checkpoint outside the dinner at the Washington Hilton Hotel.
President Trump posted a photo to social media showing the shirtless suspect on the floor of the hotel with his arms tied behind his back after being detained.

The suspect was not struck by gunfire, but was taken to a hospital for evaluation, Carroll said.
He said the suspect was a guest at the hotel, but did not elaborate on when he checked in or what’s been found in a search of his room.
“At this point, it does appear he is a lone actor, a lone gunman,” Carroll said, adding that the investigation is continuing.
President Trump also told reporters in a separate news conference at the White House that it was believed the suspect acted as a “lone wolf.”
Allen worked for a tutoring firm in Torrance called C2 Education, two law enforcement sources confirmed to CBS News. He received a “Teacher of the Month” award from the company in December 2024.
It was unclear if he was still employed by the company. The Torrance Unified School District told CBS News in a statement that Allen has never been an employee of their district.
The California Institute of Technology confirmed to CBS News in an email that Allen graduated from Caltech in 2017, but provided no further details.
Federal and local authorities were also seen late Saturday night at a home in Torrance believed to belong to the suspect. At about 10:30 p.m. Pacific Time, aerial video from CBS News Los Angeles showed federal agents entering the home.

Allen will be charged with one count each of using a firearm during a crime of violence, and assault on a federal officer using a dangerous weapon, U.S. Attorney for D.C. Jeanine Pirro announced Saturday night. Pirro said she expects him to face more charges as the investigation unfolds.
“It is clear, based upon what we know so far, that this individual was intent on doing as much harm and as much damage as he could,” Pirro said.
Pirro said he will be arraigned Monday in federal court.

美国总统特朗普说，一名嫌犯在安检区朝执法人员近距离开枪，执法人员随即采取行动制伏对方。他赞扬执法人员反应果断、表现出色。
特朗普星期六（4月25日）在白宫记者协会晚宴枪击事件发生后，回到白宫召开记者会。
他在记者会上说，一名男子持多件武器冲向安检区时，被几名勇敢的特勤局人员制伏。一名人员遭近距离枪击，但因身穿防弹背心，并无大碍，“他一切都安好”。
为求透明和清晰，他已经下令公布相关录像。
他说，这段录像已经在Truth Social社媒和其他许多平台上发布，“记录了这个暴徒攻击我们宪法的暴力行径，也展现了特勤局和执法部门如何迅速地代表国家采取行动。他们做得非常出色”。
他补充说，嫌疑人住在加利福尼亚，是一个“精神有问题的人”，并强调不希望类似事件再次发生。
特朗普说，他与第一夫人当时被迅速安全撤离，他再次感谢执法部门、特勤局及相关人员的快速反应。
他最后提到，这场活动的核心与美国宪法和言论自由有关，并宣布将在30天内重新举办此次活动，届时将“办得更大、更好、更精致”。他也感谢媒体的报道，并称媒体在此次事件中的报道“非常负责任”。
