A man was shot and killed by law enforcement personnel at President Trump’s Mar-a-Lago resort in Palm Beach, Fla., early Sunday morning.
Secret Service chief of communications Anthony Guglielmi said the man, in early 20s, was killed after “unlawfully entering the secure perimeter” at the resort around 1:30 a.m. local time Sunday. Two Secret Service agents and a Palm Beach County Sheriff’s Office deputy responded to the incident, where shots were fired by law enforcement officials, Palm Beach County Sheriff Ric L. Bradshaw said at a Sunday presser.
Local and federal officials are investigating whether it was a Secret Service agent or the local sheriff’s office deputy who fatally shot the man, Bradshaw said.
The president is in Washington, D.C., and The Hill has reached out to the White House for comment. Trump often spends his weekends at the Florida resort.
Guglielmi, in his Sunday statement, said that the man was seen by the north gate of the property “carrying what appeared to be a shotgun and a fuel can.”
“He was ordered to drop those two pieces of equipment that he had with him, at which time he put down the gas can and raised the shotgun to a shooting position,” Bradshaw said. “At that point in time, the deputy and the two Secret Service agents fired their weapons and neutralized the threat.”
The Secret Service spokesperson, in the initial statement, added that no law enforcement personnel were injured during the incident and that the agency is withholding the deceased man’s identity as officials look to notify his next of kin.
The fatal shooting is under investigation by the FBI, Secret Service and Palm Beach County Sheriff’s Office. The FBI is leading the probe, per Bradshaw.
At Sunday’s presser, the special agent in charge of the FBI field office asked residents living near Mar-a-Lago to check their security cameras and to contact the FBI if they see anything suspicious.
Secret Service agents involved in the incident have been placed on routine administrative leave, Guglielmi added.

OR, the lefts non-stop hateful rhetoric about the president being hitler and a fascist bla bla bla has yet again awakened another lunatic.
A liberal with TDS I’m sure.
And another one bites the dust.
Maybe it was both and they had to stop shooting because they ran out of ammo.
Grade school teacher from Vermont. Active in the local Democrat community. Vegetarian. Atheist. Hates ICE. Those are my guesses.
And is elevated to sainthood by the left.
Smells like trantifa.
You forgot “trans”......which is a real possibility
Oo, my turn... um... from Austin, tranny, huge student loan from University of Texas!
Most likely.
Perhaps.
Wrong! Vegan, not vegetarian
Nah, vegan would never have the energy. I say it’s a girl on testosterone.

It appears a man named Austin Tucker Martin was also reported missing by his family in North Carolina yesterday according to posts I found on Facebook. His aunt said on Facebook his family contacted the FBI to report him missing….
Is this the same Austin Tucker Martin who was just shot and killed by Secret Service @SecretService at Mar a Lago?
Source told me the name of the man USSS shot and killed who tried to break into Mar a Lago with a shotgun and gas canister is named Austin Tucker Martin.
Oh I was reading your list as fact until you said it was a guess. Either way, a darn good one!
there funded it.
Fixed.
White liberal ‘elite’ members of the press and their nonstop hated for MAGA and President Trump caused this....
