Right, around 1:30 in the morning on Sunday, 21 year old Austin Tucker Martin reportedly got through the gate of Mar-A-Lago carrying a fuel can and a shotgun. And, in case it isn’t obvious, even though Trump wasn’t around at the time, this guy definitely wasn’t supposed to be there. Martin made it about 20 years before being confronted by law enforcement - a deputy and 2 Secret Service agents to be specific. The local sheriff said in a press conference that the agents told Martin to drop what he was holding and that’s when he, quote, “raised the shotgun to a shooting position.” They then fired on Martin and he was pronounced dead at the scene. As of now, that’s pretty much all we know about the confrontation itself - we don’t know how many shots were fired or who among the agents and officer actually pulled the trigger. But there is an investigation underway and we know that the officials involved were wearing body cameras. And the Secret Service agents have been placed on administrative leave while the investigation takes place. As for the intruder himself, we know that he’s from North Carolina and he was reported missing Saturday by his mother. The New York Times spoke to some of his former classmates from high school - who described him as a smart, quiet, conservative guy. Adding that while he did talk about his opinions, came from a pro-Trump family, and was even in the ROTC - he wasn’t aggressive. —————————— Produced by: Cory Ray, Philip DeFranco Edited by: James Girardier, Maxwell Enright, Julie Goldberg, Christian Meeks, Matthew Henry Art Department: William Crespo Writing/Research: Star Pralle, Philip DeFranco ———————————— #Trump #USA #America
