Republican presidential nominee Donald Trump moved ahead of New York City officials when he declared a "bomb went off" before officials had released details. He made the announcement minutes after stepping off his plane in Colorado Springs, Colorado.



"I must tell you that just before I got off the plane a bomb went off in New York and nobody knows what's going on," Trump said.



He continued, "But boy we are living in a time — we better get very tough, folks. We better get very, very tough. It's a terrible thing that's going on in our world, in our country and we are going to get tough and smart and vigilant."



A spokeswoman for Trump didn't respond to an email asking whether he was briefed about it before taking the stage.
