Shooting at Trump dinner, same place where President Ronald Reagan was

The shooting incident that occurred at the Washington Hilton on Connecticut Avenue, where US President Donald Trump was also present, is the same hotel where former US President Ronald Reagan was assassinated in 1981.

Three people were injured in the Reagan assassination attempt. The shooting took place on March 30, 1981, when perpetrator John Hinckley Jr. shot Reagan as he was returning to his limousine after a speech at the hotel.

Reagan survived, but was seriously wounded by a bullet that ricocheted off the side of a presidential limousine and struck him in the torso, breaking a rib and puncturing one of his lungs. He was rushed to nearby George Washington University Hospital and was eventually released on April 11.

Then-White House Press Secretary James Brady was injured in the same incident, as well as a Secret Service agent and a local Metropolitan Police Department officer.

The following year, Hinckley was found not guilty by reason of insanity, but was locked up in a high-security area of ??Washington's St. Elizabeth Hospital until he was released in 2016. /CNA
