CNN journalist Wolf Blitzer described the "very scary" scene that unfolded in front of him at the White House Correspondents' Dinner.
"All of a sudden, I start hearing gunshots in the hall right near me," Blitzer said. He was returning to his seat after using the bathroom, and shooting broke out before the dinner got underway. "The next thing I knew, a police officer threw me to the ground and was on top of me."
Blitzer described the scene as "so worrisome, and the noise was so loud," and said the gunman "had a major weapon." Reports later indicated that was a shotgun.
Initial reports claimed the gunman died at the scene, however Axios has since reported the gunman was taken into custody.
Blitzer later described hearing about six shots.

Franklin Templeton CEO Dismisses 50bps Rate Cut Ahead FOMC
The post Franklin Templeton CEO Dismisses 50bps Rate Cut Ahead FOMC appeared on BitcoinEthereumNews.com. Franklin Templeton CEO Jenny Johnson has weighed in on whether the Federal Reserve should make a 25 basis points (bps) Fed rate cut or 50 bps cut. This comes ahead of the Fed decision today at today’s FOMC meeting, with the market pricing in a 25 bps cut. Bitcoin and the broader crypto market are currently trading flat ahead of the rate cut decision. Franklin Templeton CEO Weighs In On Potential FOMC Decision In a CNBC interview, Jenny Johnson said that she expects the Fed to make a 25 bps cut today instead of a 50 bps cut. She acknowledged the jobs data, which suggested that the labor market is weakening. However, she noted that this data is backward-looking, indicating that it doesn’t show the current state of the economy. She alluded to the wage growth, which she remarked is an indication of a robust labor market. She added that retail sales are up and that consumers are still spending, despite inflation being sticky at 3%, which makes a case for why the FOMC should opt against a 50-basis-point Fed rate cut. In line with this, the Franklin Templeton CEO said that she would go with a 25 bps rate cut if she were Jerome Powell. She remarked that the Fed still has the October and December FOMC meetings to make further cuts if the incoming data warrants it. Johnson also asserted that the data show a robust economy. However, she noted that there can’t be an argument for no Fed rate cut since Powell already signaled at Jackson Hole that they were likely to lower interest rates at this meeting due to concerns over a weakening labor market. Notably, her comment comes as experts argue for both sides on why the Fed should make a 25 bps cut or…
