Trump tells 60 Minutes he ‘wasn’t worried’ during correspondents’ dinner shooting

US president says in interview his curiosity probably slowed Secret Service efforts to rush him out of event

Donald Trump spoke with CBS correspondent Norah O'Donnell in an interview that aired Sunday night on 60 Minutes describing his ordeal at the White House Correspondents' Association dinner when shots rang out.

A gunman opened fire at the Washington Hilton hotel Saturday night, though he did not breach the basement-level ballroom where Trump was sitting at the time. The president described the events in an even tone, saying that he did not feel particularly alarmed as they unfolded.
