Former President Donald Trump abruptly ended a campaign town hall in Oaks, Pennsylvania, after two medical emergencies occurred in the audience. The event, hosted by South Dakota Gov. Kristi Noem, was taking place at the Greater Philadelphia Expo Center & Fairgrounds.
The first incident unfolded while Gov. Noem was discussing Vice President Kamala Harris and criticizing Democratic energy policies. Trump interrupted, calling for a doctor to assist a person in distress due to the heat. He praised the quality of care provided by first responders in the audience.
Although the exact nature of the emergencies was not captured on camera, reports indicated that one individual was wheeled out on a stretcher. Trump expressed concern for the individuals affected, referring to them as patriots.
During the town hall, Trump requested the song 'Ave Maria' to be played in honor of a firefighter who had recently passed away. Despite the interruptions, Gov. Noem and Trump reassured the audience that the individuals were receiving proper care and were in good condition.
Following the second medical incident, Trump decided to forego further questions from the audience and instructed organizers to play music instead. The town hall concluded on a note of concern for the well-being of those affected and a call for unity among attendees.
