The White House confirmed to Fox News Digital that President Biden has been briefed about an apparent shooting at former President Trump's Pennsylvania rally on Saturday.

"The President has received an initial briefing on the incident at Former President Trump’s rally," the statement read.

When Biden exited a Delaware church at around 6:20 p.m. on Saturday evening, he was asked about the situation by reporters.

"There was just a shooting at President Trump’s rally, have you been briefed on this?" a reporter asked.

"No," Biden responded before getting into a car. The White House's statement came shortly after the exchange.
