There are few news stories capable of shocking the world more than the attempted assassination of a former US president.

The attack on Donald Trump was historic the moment shots rang out in Butler, Pennsylvania.

This is how some of Australia and the world's biggest newspapers covered the story.

The developments came too late at night for most English papers to cover them but the Sunday Telegraph and The Mail on Sunday pushed out late editions.

It was already early Sunday morning when the news broke in Australia but the story continued to dominate the news cycle throughout the day and into Monday.

Sometimes a major global event is defined by a single image.

As you can see by the repeated use of this photo in The Age and other papers, this attempted assassination is likely to be one such event.
