Armed Man Shot and Killed After Entering Mar-a-Lago Perimeter, Secret Service Says
An armed man was shot and killed early Sunday after entering the secure perimeter of Mar-a-Lago, according to the United States Secret Service. Authorities say the suspect was seen near the north gate carrying what appeared to be a shotgun and a fuel can. After being ordered to drop the items, he allegedly raised the weapon into a shooting position, prompting two Secret Service agents and a sheriff’s deputy to open fire. President Donald Trump was at the White House at the time of the incident. The FBI is assisting in the investigation as officials work to determine the suspect’s motive. The incident comes amid heightened concerns over political violence in the United States.
