Trump, Clinton cancel campaign events after Dallas shooting

Clinton was scheduled to campaign along with Vice President Joe Biden in Pennsylvania.“Due to the tragic events in Dallas, the July 8 Hillary for America campaign event with Vice President Biden will be postponed,” the campaign said in a statement.

Trump was scheduled to hold an election rally in Miami, Florida.“The Trump Campaign has cancelled the trip to Miami, Florida on Friday, due to the tragic events in Dallas last night,” his campaign said in another statement.

Snipers shot dead five police officers and injured seven others in “ambush style” firing in Dallas during a protest against the fatal police shootings of black men this week, making it one of the deadliest attack on law enforcers in the country.

This is for the second time that election rallies have been canceled due to tragic violent incidents in the country.Last month, Trump and Clinton cancelled their campaign events after the horrific mass shooting at a gay club in Orlando, Florida.
