Welcome to our viewers in the United States and around the world, we are continuing breaking news live coverage as the FBI has said it is investigating an assassination attempt on former President Donald Trump, we are told the former president is safe, shots were fired around him while he was playing golf at his club in West Palm Beach Florida, which is about a fifteen-minute drive from Mara Lago Clubbers and Palm Beach Florida, moments ago we got a description from the Palm Beach Sheriff’s Office detailing how this all happened, it’s quite amazing. Very detailed and third your very revealing long story short.
But authorities say the man is in custody in connection to the incident, which took place at Trump International Golf Club at about half past one o’clock this afternoon Eastern Time. US Secret Service agents opened fire on the suspect, who they believe was armed and wanted to target him. Former President Trump and a case now long time handheld rifle with a scope in backpack Go Pro camera was recovered. Visit the tour panel right now Charles Ramsey assesses what’s happening on the flag there was a scope Chief Ramsey told me it tells me I think you’re gonna have to pay.
The FBI has concluded that this appears to be a second assassination attempt against Trump. Yeah, you’re right or I know that clearly in my mind anyway. It’s the appropriate classification for this particular incident. We’re very lucky and we were lucky in July in Butler Pennsylvania. Today again luck only goes so far and so everybody has to be incredibly vigilant, not only for a former president but for all the candidates security has been increased. Because we do, we’re in an environment right now where you have a lot of unstable people who aren’t afraid. I try to harm somebody. So we’re all very lucky that the Secret Service agent was able to see this. For fun was able to take immediate action to prevent a tragedy. That Secret Service agent saw the barrel of a rifle sticking out of the trees that were near a golf course, right? Now the air and that’s where shots were fired at the suspect, and eventually, another person saw what was going on.
Took some pictures of the vehicle that the suspect was using, straightened out the license plate, and eventually the suspect was apprehended just north of Palm Beach County in Martin County, which isn’t too far away from Jonathan Macro the fact that there was a GoPro camera. It was right near that fence near those backpacks that the suspect cat was on there. What does that tell you? Wolf, I think a lot of these elements speak to a high level of sophistication by the shooter, right, so you know the Go Pro camera here with the intent to livestream this attack on you whispered. The fact that we saw people who felt like we heard reporting freely at the press conference. There are ceramic plates in the backpacks or else you know it was setting up a firing position. The shooter probably intended to engage directly with the Secret Service agents at one point, I think the Secret Service structure protective method can be worked out by keeping them out.
Dot agent’s operations during security during golf are really to address this type of threat. The sides of the fairway have proven to be successful, it’s a model that the Secret Service has applied to these types of activities for a long time dating back to Italy. One day Bush and Clinton administrations were trying to get agents to extend out or again seventy-five to one hundred fifty yards from you. You’re expanding your protective bubble around the security. Just for that reason you know, but it’s difficult, I mean they’re out there, for your flanking Yoda protectee for a long time this guy has established his position.
