So, let's hear more about this story.
On Saturday night, Cole Thomas Allen was arrested for attempting to shoot U.S.
President Donald Trump during the White House Correspondents' dinner.
He's now been charged with attempted assassination.
Allen was carrying two guns and three knives at prosecutors' say.
During Saturday night's incident, Trump, Vice President J.D. Vance, cabinet members
and other White House officials were rushed from the Washington Hilton Hotel ballroom after gunfire was heard.
Let's have our first headline.
That headline again from BBC News.
This headline is based on a performer's account of the night.
Oz Perlman told the BBC that he was talking to Trump,
First Lady Melania Trump and White House Press Secretary Caroline Levitt when the attack happened.
Yes, he says that they were face to face looking at each other.
And the language we're going to focus on can describe just that.
The headline mentions that the performer locked eyes with Trump.
