Two months ago, a gunman opened fire on Trump. Now his campaign team has announced that shots were fired “near” the Republican. The Secret Service has also commented.
According to his campaign team, Republican presidential candidate Donald Trump is safe after shots were fired “near him.” “No further details at this time,” said his spokesman Steven Cheung. It was initially unclear what exactly had happened and whether Trump himself was in danger. He was at his golf club in West Palm Beach, Florida, over the weekend.
The Secret Service spokesman announced on the X platform that the former president was safe after an “incident.” This occurred on Sunday shortly before 2 p.m. (local time). Spokesman Anthony Guglielmi also stated that Trump was safe – but did not provide any further details. The Secret Service is responsible for protecting high-ranking politicians in the USA, including current and former presidents.
The New York Post wrote that two people had shot at each other outside the golf club. The shots were not aimed at Trump, the newspaper said, citing unnamed sources. There was no official confirmation of this.
On July 13, a gunman shot at Trump from a nearby roof at a campaign rally in Pennsylvania. Trump was wounded in the right ear by a bullet, and the perpetrator was shot dead by security forces shortly afterwards. One visitor died and two others were injured.
