Secret Service probing shooting near Trump; Palm Beach sheriff to hold presser

 Donald Trump's campaign said he is "safe" after a shooting incident near the former president while he was in Palm Beach County on Sunday.

“President Trump is safe following gunshots in his vicinity," said Steven Cheung, Trump campaign communications director in a statement. Cheung gave no further details.

The U.S. Secret Service confirmed it was investigating "a protective incident" involving Trump early this afternoon, and said the Palm Beach County Sheriff's Office would "have more details soon." A press conference with Sheriff Ric Bradshaw is scheduled for later this afternoon.

"The Secret Service, in conjunction with the Palm Beach County Sheriff’s Office, is investigating a protective incident involving former President Donald Trump that occurred shortly before 2 p.m. The former president is safe. @pbso will have more details soon," stated a posting on X, formerly Twitter, by Anthony Guglielmi, Chief of Communications for the United States Secret Service.
