A video has surfaced of Erika Kirk in tears as she is escorted away from the White House Correspondents' Dinner after a shooting broke out on Saturday, April 28.
Netizens expressed their empathy for Erika, whose husband Charlie Kirk was shot dead at an event in Utah last year.
As she walked away quickly with two men on either side, Erika was heard saying, 'I just want to go home.'
The shooting at the White House Correspondents' Dinner led to the evacuation of Donald Trump and other government officials from the Washington Hilton.
Several Secret Service members escorted Trump away from the venue as they called out 'stay down, stay down'.
Senior administration officials like Pete Hegseth were also escorted out by their security details.
