Suspect in custody after shooting at Trump International Golf Club in West Palm Beach
There is still a lot of conflicting information surrounding the shooting at Trump’s golf club in Florida. Initially, several news outlets reported that Trump was not the intended target.
However, moments ago, CNN reported that he was, in fact, the target of the attack.
No official statement has been released yet, but police recovered a backpack containing an AK-47 rifle and a GoPro camera near the scene of the shooting.
The suspect was spotted “aiming a rifle” at the golf course where Trump was playing, prompting the Secret Service to open fire.
The suspect carrying a firearm near Trump’s golf course fled in an SUV after the Secret Service opened fire and was later detained in a neighboring county.
Suspect was arrested on I-95 in Martin County, Florida, sheriff’s office says.
Authorities are set to hold a press conference soon to provide more details. The briefing is expected shortly.
Vice President Kamala Harris responded, saying, “I have been briefed on reports of gunshots fired near former President Trump and his property in Florida, and I am glad he is safe. Violence has no place in America.”
The sheriff’s office will hold a press conference on the Trump golf course shooting at 4:30 p.m. ET.

An 18-year-old suspect has been arrested and charged in a deadly shooting that occurred in October, which claimed the life of a 16-year-old and injured another.
The incident began on October 6, 2024, shortly after 12:45 a.m., when officers were called to a shooting on I-244 near Yale Avenue.
Upon arrival, they discovered a gray SUV riddled with bullet holes and shattered windows. Investigators determined that seven people were inside the vehicle at the time of the shooting.
Two occupants of the vehicle suffered gunshot wounds.
One victim, 16-year-old Ja’Tycie Williams, sustained critical injuries and succumbed to them several weeks later. The other victim suffered a minor gunshot wound to the arm and survived.
Preliminary investigations revealed the incident was linked to a fight at the Tulsa State Fair earlier that evening.
Witnesses reported that the altercation, which occurred as the group was leaving the fairgrounds, likely escalated into the highway shooting.
Following an in-depth investigation, Tulsa Police Homicide Detectives identified 18-year-old Kyler Naely as the suspect responsible for the shooting.
On November 19, 2024, Naely was arrested, charged with first-degree murder, and booked into the Tulsa County Jail.
