(How long will they wait until they reveil his sexual deviancy and his terminal TDS.)
(His family reported him missing to the FBI and a massive hunt was started ... on day one ...?? Did he leave a note saying he was going to go to Florida and kill the President. The FBI won't look for me or you on day one unless we rob a bank.)
On Sunday, the Palm Beach County Sheriff, Ric Bradshaw, announced the identity of the man shot and killed trying to enter President Trump's Mar-a-Lago estate. The intruder has been identified as 21-year-old Austin Tucker Martin of North Carolina.
Sheriff Ric Bradshaw confirmed to Fox News that the suspect was 21-year-old Austin Tucker Martin of North Carolina.
No Secret Service or PBSO personnel were injured, and no Secret Service protectees were present at the location during the time of the incident, officials said. Trump was also not in Florida when the shooting occurred.
The FBI, Secret Service and Palm Beach County Sheriff’s Office are investigating, including the man’s background, actions and potential motive, as well as the use of force.
Bradshaw said at a press conference that a deputy and two Secret Service agents on the detail went to investigate after an individual made his way onto the "inner perimeter" near the north gate of Mar-a-Lago.
That's uncomfortably close, although the president wasn't present, nor were any other Secret Service protectees.
RedState's own Susie Moore covered the story as it broke earlier on Sunday:
Sheriff Bradshaw added some other details as well:
"They (A Deputy and two Secret Service agents) confronted a white male that was carrying a gas can and a shotgun. He was ordered to drop those two pieces of equipment that he had with him – at which time he put down the gas can, raised the shotgun to a shooting position," Bradshaw told reporters. "At that point in time, the deputy and the two Secret Service agents fired their weapons and neutralized the threat."
He said the suspect did not exchange any words with law enforcement officers who instructed the man to "drop the items."
An assassination attempt? President Trump is often at Mar-a-Lago on weekends, although it's not difficult to ascertain his whereabouts on any given day. But, President Trump has attracted his fair share of attention from nutcase would-be assassins.
Suicide by cop? There are lots of easier ways to do that, if that's one's intent. Martin's intentions here remain a head-scratcher.
This remains a developing story. Stay tuned.
