The Trump campaign confirmed reports that gunshots were fired outside of the Trump international golf course in West Palm Beach, Florida as the former president was leaving.
“President Trump is safe following gunshots in his vicinity. No further details at this time,” read a statement from Steven Cheung, the communications director for the Trump Campaign.
Law enforcement sources reportedly said that an AK-47 has been recovered and a white male suspect was detained. The former president’s son Donald Trump Jr. appeared to confirm the report from his account on the X platform.
