**West Palm Beach, Florida:** Former US President Donald Trump was the target of a shooting attempt at his golf club in West Palm Beach, Florida on Sunday. The incident, the second such attempt in recent weeks, involved a suspected attacker armed with an AK-47 rifle.

According to reports, the assailant fired multiple shots from a distance of around 400 yards, prompting Secret Service agents to return fire. The attacker subsequently abandoned his rifle, two backpacks, and other belongings before fleeing in a car. A witness captured the vehicle and license plate, which helped authorities apprehend the suspect in Martin County shortly after the incident.

The suspect was apprehended by authorities without incident and is currently being interrogated.

Just nine weeks prior, an individual opened fire on Trump during a campaign rally in Pennsylvania, narrowly missing the former president. A bullet grazed Trump’s right ear, sparking heated political discussions.

The use of an AK-47 rifle, a fully automatic weapon known for its high rate of fire and range, has drawn considerable attention.

This incident has raised serious concerns about the safety of former presidents and underscores the need for enhanced security measures. The FBI is currently investigating the incident.
