Suspect in custody after second attempted assassination of Donald Trump (Page 4 ) | September 16, 2024
Annonce:
The holes Trump was playing when the incident occurred are on the eastern edge of the golf course.
Trump had no public events on his schedule for Sunday, and his golf game was a last-minute addition to his itinerary, two sources familiar with the matter said.
The apparent assassination attempt at Trump’s golf course in Florida comes two months after an assassination attempt against the former president at a Butler, Pennsylvania, rally that sparked scrutiny of the US Secret Service.
“Former President Donald Trump is safe and unharmed following a possible attempted assassination shortly before 2pm Sunday at Trump International Golf Club at West Palm Beach. US Secret Service personnel opened fire on a gunman located near the property line,” Rafael Barros, the Secret Service special agent in charge of the Miami field office, said in a statement.
Ronald Rowe, acting director of the US Secret Service, is travelling to Florida in the wake of the incident, a law enforcement source familiar with the matter told CNN.
Florida Governor Ron DeSantis said on Sunday that his state would conduct its own investigation of the apparent thwarted assassination attempt.
And the congressional task force that’s investigating the first attempted assassination of the former president is requesting a briefing with the Secret Service following Sunday’s incident.
