Authorities have identified the man who was fatally shot after allegedly breaching security at Mar-a-Lago, the Florida residence of former President Donald Trump.
According to officials, the incident occurred in the early morning hours when the suspect entered a restricted area of the property. Law enforcement sources said the individual was armed and failed to comply with commands from security personnel. Agents from the U.S. Secret Service discharged their weapons after the suspect reportedly raised a firearm during the confrontation.
The suspect was pronounced dead at the scene. No Secret Service personnel were injured, and Trump was not present at the property at the time of the incident.
The FBI, along with the Palm Beach County Sheriff’s Office, is leading the ongoing investigation. Officials have not yet released details regarding a possible motive.
Authorities stated that the matter remains under active investigation and further updates will be provided as more information becomes available.
