Gadin.Net reports that the incident took place during a live broadcast.
Trump's attention is drawn to the security guard at the beginning of the press conference.
After he said something to the president, they left the conference area with the bodyguards of the US president.
Speaking to reporters, Trump said: "There was a shooting near the White House. Thank you for the secret service. One person was injured and taken to hospital. I have no information about his condition. "
The US Secret Service has released details of a shooting near the White House.
The relevant statement was posted on the department's Twitter account.
The attacker was a 51-year-old man.
The man approached a secret service officer at 6 pm. He said he was armed and did not manage to pull out his weapon, but the security guard moved quickly and wounded an unknown person.
The suspect was treated and taken to hospital.
It is said that the US Secret Service will conduct an internal investigation into the actions.
During a press conference at the White House, US President Donald Trump heard gunfire from the street and a security guard pulled the president out of the hall.
