Rep. Ronny Jackson (R-TX) said Saturday evening that his nephew was injured during the assassination attempt on former President Donald Trump earlier in the day at a political rally in Pennsylvania.

Jackson, who made the remarks during a Fox News interview, said: “My nephew was at the event tonight, and they were in the friends and family pen, and they heard the shots and everybody dropped to the ground.”

“He was grazed in the neck, a bullet crossed his neck, cut his neck, and he was bleeding,”  he said. “This is my nephew, they were there, I’d set them up, they went to the rally.”

He said that they were seated to the president’s “right, down a little bit lower, on left on the screen, but to the president’s right, in the line of fire.”
