CORROBORATED
Multiple web search results report that Donald Trump was evacuated from the White House Correspondents' Dinner following a security incident involving a shooter or armed breach. Specifically, TRT World and RT World News report on the evacuation and apprehension of a shooter. The evidence from Wikipedia is irrelevant to this specific claim, but the web search results independently confirm the core elements of the claim.
