BREAKING: 3 ‘Teens’ Armed With an AK-47 Jump Fence at Trump’s Mar-a-Lago Property
Trespassers later claimed they "found" the AK-47 and did not know Mar-a-Lago belonged to Trump
Police in Palm beach, Florida confirmed Wednesday that three “teens” were taken into custody after scaling the fence surrounding President Donald Trump’s property at the Mar-a-Lago Club around mignight on Friday July 31.
Local NBC affiliate WPTV reports that police confirmed the “teens” were seen loitering in a silver Hyundai automobile “parked in the 300 block of Middle Road.”
When police approached the vehicle, the occupants took off and fled.
The criminals, armed with a Mini Draco 7.62 caliber AK-47, led authorities on a pursuit that eventually found its way to the borders of Trump’s Mar-a-Lago property, which is currently closed for the summer.
The youths then promptly scared the fencing around the club, leaving the AK-47 in a backpack on top of a seawall, where it was later found by Mar-a-Lago employees.
The trespassers were unable to evade detection for long within the property, and were apprehended without being allowed to put up any resistance.
Police have charged the interlopers with resisting arrest, armed trespassing, and armed burglary. It is unknown if weapons charges related to the AK-47 will be pursued by local authorities.
One of the teens reportedly told police that the trio had “found” the semi-automatic rifle when asked why it was in their possession. The group also claimed they had no idea that they had trespassed on property belonging to Donald Trump.
A police spokesperson said the trespassers were “lucky” that the President was not residing in Mar-a-Lago at the time of the intrusion, as they may have been shot down by police or the Secret Service if he was.
President Trump has been the target of innumerable death threats since his inauguration in 2017, and police and Secret Service have thwarted the efforts of multiple individuals to enter his properties or campaign rallies armed with deadly weapons.

Micro Draco is a pistol
Is the IQ sum >200?

We need to put this crap down. It’s gone too far and won’t be stopping without intervention.
Oh. I thought they cut it so deep it required stitches ;)
They should get one.
“Is there an editor in the house?”
Yes, but he’s Japanese
Perhaps "found" is actually a euphemism for "stole".
For instance, to the general public "getting paid" refers too that bimontly direct depost or check that one receives from and employer as renumeration for services rendered but within a certain demographic it refers to "robbing someone".
One thing I’ll say is, a Mini Draco AK-47 makes a strong point for earplugs. The first time I fired one sans protection left my ears ringing for ten minutes. Loud li’l bastard.
They “scared the fencing?” pointed their AK at it?
Corrupt lowlife enablers like De Blasio in NYC encouraged them by having BLM banner or painted pavement (??) in front of Trump Tower. Leads childlike minds to think they can get away with anything and declare it a CHOP Portland style hands-off zone. No arrests expected or Dems will denounce authorities for them.
This has to stop.
Mar-a-Lago security definitely needs vast improvements!
Doesn’t seem to take much to breach whatever system that’s in place at this point.
Totally unacceptable situation for the winter White House and new residence for PDJT after his second term.
They knew that they were doing. We have allowed these punks to run amok, killing, destroying, burning and maiming in several states without fear of reprisal.....so you have these little punks with arms penetrating the lines of Mar a Logo.........shoot on sight!!!
Draco pistol? Completely useless
I checked out the area when I was in the area once. There is no chance someone wanders onto it. The fence is tall and there’s no sidewalk. You don’t stumble onto it. Everywhere around there is private.
These were guys at best looking for a cheap score ripping off something. At best.
Obama didn’t have hardly any attempts on his life. Must be that crazies hate Trump better.
Winner of the dead corpse award.
Japanese or French fencing?
Deny...Deny...Deny! Democrat strategery for all things.
