A U.S. government court filing submitted on Wednesday has raised questions about initial assertions made by officials regarding an attempted assassination of President Donald Trump at the White House Correspondents' Association dinner.

The filing appears to contradict early claims that a gunman shot a Secret Service officer during the event.

Despite these contradictions, investigators believe the man charged with the attempted assassination did shoot a Secret Service officer. Law enforcement officials familiar with the case stated that the officer was wearing a ballistic vest at the time.
