Washington: Just before the US presidential election, an attempt has been made to kill Donald Trump once again. Gunfire has taken place very close to Republican candidate Donald Trump. However, Donald Trump is completely safe in this firing. In fact, bullets were fired near former US President Donald Trump on Sunday afternoon (local time) near the Trump golf course in Florida. Trump’s campaign team and intelligence service gave this information.
It is not clear at the moment whether this firing was done to target the Republican candidate for the US presidential election or not. But Donald Trump has clearly said that he is not going to be scared of this firing. He will not surrender at any cost. The US intelligence service said that it is investigating the matter and the incident took place around 2 o’clock.
According to a spokesperson for the Palm Beach County Sheriff’s Office in Florida, no one has been reported injured. At the same time, the White House said that both President Joe Biden and the Democratic Party’s presidential candidate and Vice President Kamala Harris have been informed about this investigation and they will be constantly updated about it. The White House said that they are relieved to know that Trump is safe.
Earlier, on July 13, during an election rally in Pennsylvania, a gunman opened fire targeting former President Donald Trump (78). In this attack, a bullet grazed Trump’s right ear, while one person attending the rally was killed and two others were seriously injured. Trump returned to Florida from his West Coast tour this weekend. The campaign team has not immediately given additional information in this matter.
A security official, speaking on condition of anonymity, said an investigation was underway and officials were trying to determine whether the shots were fired near Trump’s West Palm Beach golf course or in the field. It is worth mentioning that Donald Trump often spends the morning playing golf and has lunch at the Trump International Golf Club West Palm Beach, one of the three clubs he owns in the state.
Trump’s security has been beefed up after the July incident. During his presence at Trump Tower in New York, dump trucks are parked outside the building and when he attends rallies, a bulletproof glass enclosure is built around him. Let us tell you that presidential elections are to be held in the US in November. A close contest is being witnessed between Kamala Harris and Donald Trump.
