Good afternoon. Family and political figures from both ends of the US political spectrum expressed shock after what appeared to be “an attempted assassination of the former president”, the FBI said.
An agent with the US Secret Service spotted the muzzle of a firearm poking through a fence in a wooded area at the Trump International golf club in West Palm Beach, where Trump was playing, officials said. Agents opened fire, prompting the man to flee. A suspect was later arrested and a weapon, a scope and a GoPro camera were recovered.
