According to the New York Post, Donald Trump has survived a second assassination attempt.
A gunman was spotted with an assault rifle near the former president’s golf course on Sunday while he was playing a round.
The gunman was spotted at about 2 p.m. by an advance team several holes ahead of Trump.
A Secret Service agent opened fire on the man as Trump played golf causing the shooter with the rifle to flee.
Trump issued a defiant statement after the apparent attempt on his life.
“There were gunshots in my vicinity but before rumors start spiraling out of control, I wanted you to hear this first: I AM SAFE AND WELL!” he wrote in a campaign alert letting supporters know he was unharmed.
Trump spokesman Steven Cheung also said:
“President Trump is safe following gunshots in his vicinity. No further details at this time,”
The man was later arrested by local police on I-95.
Law enforcement sources told The Post the suspect is a white man in his 50s who is believed to be from Hawaii.
An assault rifle was recovered at the scene, which was earlier reported to be an AK-47.
Police and the U.S. Secret Service are investigating.
