Former President Donald Trump is safe following gunshots “in his vicinity” on Sunday, according to his campaign.
“President Trump is safe,” his campaign communications director, Steven Cheung, said, adding there were “no further details at this time”.
The Secret Service confirmed in a post on X that they were investigating a “protective incident” involving Trump that took place shortly before 14:00 EST (19:00 BST).
The incident comes almost exactly two months after a gunman attempted to assassinate Trump at a rally in Butler, Pennsylvania, striking his ear.

Trump 2024 🇺🇸
@carminaburana9765
He's a Floridian Dictator, gunshots near him aren't really newsworthy. They're just trying to change the pooular conversation from the debate.
@jamessimpson5634
Umm… How is this news and who cares? Thousands of gunshots occur all over America every day. There are more guns than people.
@unbearifiedbear1885
If this was anybody else in HISTORY, I can only imagine how different the mainstream narratives would be
Not today, shtlibs 😂👍🏻

ITS FLORIDA, GUN SHOTS ARE AN EVERYDAY OCCURRENCE. 🤦🏼♂️
@matthewmoomjian7367
Lol he staged it for publicity
@antonysmyth2464
Maybe the shots were nothing to do with Mr Trump. But it makes good headlines to keep him on screens. Is it possible he paid the shooters, would his supporters do that — No. I guess it could be said ‘we reap what we sow’.

@rickcrammond6330
I live in the US, and I hear gunshots most days.
@Robert-jf7sx
Any audio or video or this "shooting" ?
Probably, staged by Trump himself like the last time.
Fake News…no video, who believes without seeing ANYTHING, come on. Last time, we saw how fake, staged his "shooting" was !?
That ear sure looks fine. No scaring, no cauliflowering of the cartilidge. Truly amazing. Almost like he staged it with a movie blood pack hidden under that red hat !?
@johnnyquid-xj4kk
Dang it. Almost.
@balyemez9489
He needs attention, pampering, thats all.
@TheOrlandoTrustfull
This just reeks of a campaign trying to make something that happens every day in America about themselves, for sympathy votes.

@arohaodufu7998
Looking for more sympathy,probably Haitians around Florida mistaking him for a pig or dog..
@johnjohnson3370
Well if he had a brain he should quit i know i would
@gangstagranny23
Trump is fortunate enough to have secret service surrounding him, kids in schools, people in church, shoppers, theater goers, club patrons etc. do not have that protection.
@ProudAmericanAmerican
Democrats need to be held responsible for their hate speech.
