FLEOA Condemns Heinous Assassination Attempt on former President Donald Trump
A man bearing an AK-style rifle breached the perimeter of the property and was engaged by Secret Service personnel. The suspect is currently facing charges of possessing a firearm as a felon and possessing a firearm with an obliterated serial number, and the Federal Bureau of Investigation is investigating the event as an attempted assassination.
FLEOA1 National President Mat Silverman is saluting the bravery and professionalism of the Secret Service officers who opened fire at the suspect arrested in the incident. He also applauds the brave Secret Service law enforcement officers who immediately put themselves in harms's way while safely evacuating former President Trump to a secure location. “The safety of all major presidential candidates is more important than ever, with Election Day six weeks away,” Silverman states. “I’m calling on President Joe Biden to commit whatever law enforcement resources are required to ensure the safety of both major party nominees. It is unacceptable that two serious attempts on former President Trump’s life have been made in the past two months alone.”
“This incident highlights the dangers faced by federal agents on a day to day basis,” Silverman continued. “Federal agencies are more short staffed than ever, and the hazards that federal law enforcement face grow in severity. This isn’t political or partisan- brave law enforcement professionals like the responding officers are essential to protecting the democratic rights of all American citizens to voice their will in the form of elections.”
