"They 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. At that point in time, the deputy and the two secret service agents fired their weapons and neutralized the threat. He is deceased at the scene."
"FBI special agent Brett Skiles said the bureau which is leading the investigation is seeking help from nearby residents who might have additional footage. If you live in the area of the shooting, please check your exterior cameras for last night early this morning, Skiles said. If you see anything that looks suspicious or out of place, please contact us."
"Secret Service special agent Rafael Berrios emphasized the fact that President Donald Trump was not at Mar-a-Lago during the time of the security breach, as he hosted a dinner in Washington on Saturday. No law enforcement personnel were injured during the incident, Berrios said. We want to be clear, the President of the United States was not in the state of Florida. And this remains an active investigation by the FBI."
Shortly after 1:30 a.m., a 20-something white male entered Mar-a-Lago's inner perimeter carrying a shotgun and a gas can. A deputy and two Secret Service agents confronted him; he dropped the gas can, raised the shotgun into a shooting position, and the officers fired, killing him at the scene. No law enforcement personnel were injured. The FBI is leading an active investigation and has asked nearby residents to check exterior cameras for footage from late night and early morning and to report any suspicious activity. The President of the United States was not at Mar-a-Lago during the breach.
