President Donald Trump and first lady Melania Trump came to Pittsburgh Tuesday and mourned the victims of the mass shooting that killed 11 people at a synagogue last weekend.

The Trumps, along with the president's daughter, Ivanka, and her husband, Jared Kushner, entered the Tree of Life Synagogue together to pay their respects after their motorcade arrived from Pittsburgh International Airport.


Inside the synagogue, they lit candles for each victim before stepping outside.

The family emerged from the building with Rabbi Jeffrey Myers and went outside to a makeshift memorial, where a white Star of David with each victim's name stood along the sidewalk. The president placed a stone, a Jewish burial tradition, while the first lady placed a white flower.

The Trumps spent more than an hour at the University of Pittsburgh Medical Center, where some of the victims are recovering. The couple's motorcade passed several hundred protesters on the street and a sign that said "It's your fault." Inside, Trump visited with wounded police officers and injured congregants but did not appear to meet with relatives of the deceased.

White House press secretary Sarah Huckabee Sanders said the president's visit to the Pittsburgh synagogue was "very humbling" and "very sad."

Sanders told reporters aboard Air Force One on Tuesday that President Donald Trump had "wanted today to be about showing respect for the families and the friends of the victims as well as for Jewish Americans."

Sanders said Trump was "incredibly impressed" by Rabbi Jeffrey Myers, who had been conducting services when the shots rang out.

Sanders also said Trump "was incredibly moved" by how supportive the law enforcement members were of one another.

Not far from the synagogue, a large gathering described as a rally and march for unity was being held at the corner of Forbes Avenue and Beechwood Boulevard.

The crowd at the rally seemed to be in the hundreds, at least. WTAE's Beau Berman reported that one arrest was made; the charge was not immediately known.
