Donald Trump was the target of an attempted assassination at his golf club in West Palm Beach, Florida, the FBI confirmed on Sunday. Just nine weeks after another attempt on his life, an unidentified assailant was intercepted by US Secret Service agents.
The incident unfolded when agents spotted the muzzle of an AK-style rifle through the shrubbery lining the course. An agent fired, causing the gunman to drop the weapon and flee. The suspect was later apprehended in a neighboring county.
As the investigation continues, scrutiny over Secret Service operations intensifies, given their recent lapses in protection. Trump, safe and well, resumed his schedule and assured supporters via email of his unwavering resolve.
