Former Secret Service agent discusses response to assassination attempt on former President Donald Trump
CHICAGO -- Following Saturday's assassination attempt on President Donald Trump , a former Secret Service Agent who took a bullet during the 1981 assassination attempt on President Ronald Reagan shared his thoughts with CBS News Chicago . Tim McCarthy survived being shot and went on to become the police chief in Orland Park , Illinois.
'If that round had been another inch or two to the right, I suspect he would have been seriously injured if not killed,' McCarthy told CBS News Chicago's Joe Donlon. 'It's a terrible, terrible situation. He's extremely lucky. Unfortunately, in almost every firefight, the bad guys get off the first round because it isn't humanly possible to react instantaneously. But you're going to react shortly thereafter, and it appears they did.
