Officials have reported that a Secret Service agent opened fire on an armed suspect while former President Donald Trump was golfing at his Florida golf course. The incident occurred on the fifth hole, where Secret Service agents tackled Trump amid shots being fired in his direction.

Police later discovered a backpack containing an AK-47 and a GoPro camera near the golf course, adding to the gravity of the situation. The suspect fled the scene in a car but was later apprehended in a neighbouring county.

The swift response from the Secret Service ensured Trump’s safety, and authorities are now investigating the motive behind the attack. No injuries to Trump or his security detail have been reported. Further details about the suspect’s identity and the charges he will face are expected to be released in the coming days.
