FBI Probes Attempted Assassination of Donald Trump at Florida Golf Club

An attempted assassination on Donald Trump at his West Palm Beach golf club is under FBI investigation. Trump was unharmed when a man with an AK-style rifle entered the grounds. Quick action by the US Secret Service and local law enforcement led to the suspect's capture. President Biden and Vice President Harris were briefed, expressing relief for Trump's safety.

The FBI announced Sunday it is investigating an attempted assassination on Donald Trump at his West Palm Beach golf club. Just nine weeks after surviving a similar attack, Trump was unharmed as a man pointed an AK-style rifle at the club.

The US Secret Service intervened, opening fire at the intruder. The individual discarded the weapon and fled in an SUV but was later apprehended in a neighboring county. The Secret Service recovered the AK-style firearm at the scene without any reported injuries.

The incident marked Donald Trump's second close call this campaign year after a bullet grazed him in an earlier attempt. Trump's security has since been tightened, with enhanced measures at his public appearances.
