they said, i saw the guyjump out of the bushes, went into a black nissan, i took a picture of the vehicle and the tank, which was great. we have that information, our real—time crime scene, put it out to the licence place readers and were able to get ahead on that vehicle on the i95 as it was headed into barton county. we had the whole of martin county sheriff's office, alerted them, and they spotted the vehicle and they spotted the vehicle and pulled it over. they detained the guy. after that we took the victim, the witness, that witnessed the incident, blew him up there, and he identified the person he saw running out of the bushes and jumped into the car. in the bushes where this guy was, is an ak—47 style rifle with a scope, to backpacks which were

having ceramic tiles on them, and a go pro, which he was going to take pictures of. those would be a process right now to stop the secret service agent that was on the course did a fantasticjob. what they do is they have an agent that jumps one hole ahead of time where the president was at. he was able to spot this rightful sticking out of the fence and immediately engage that individual, at which time the individual, at which time the individual took off. that is what we know about the investigation. we have somebody investigation. we have somebody in custody right now that is a potential suspect. we have a little bit more work to do on it, but as we usually do, as soon as we decide we are going to book in the countyjail and the charges he will be put into it, we will get those to you and we will get a picture of him and we will get you his background. i will doubt character with a representative of the secret service and he will make a brief statement. good afternoon. ifirst

redshaw, bradshaw from palm beach county sheriff's office, ending that press conference, which also has representatives from the fbi, as well as the secret service. police say they have detained a suspect after shots were fired near donald trump's golf course in florida. the fbi says the incident appears to be an attempted assassination and that the suspect was in the tree line and was armed with an ak—47 rifle. there were agents from the secret service who fired shots at the individual, who was armed with an ak—47. the trump campaign says the former president is safe. a statement from the white house is the president and vice president have been briefed. let's cross live to washington and our north america correspondentjenny kumah. you were listening to that press conference. just bring us some of the information we are able to get from that. share some of the information we are able to get from that.— able to get from that. are bit more detail— able to get from that. are bit more detail about _ able to get from that. are bit more detail about what - able to get from that. are bit - more detail about what happened this afternoon at around 1:30pm

at donald trump as mike golf club in palm beach in florida. we learnt that an individual, a man was spotted on the edge of the golf course with a rifle. we now know that was an ak—47 style rifle. and that secret service agents were one or two holes ahead of donald trump when they spotted this individual. they engaged in multiple shots and the man fled and we understand that he was witnessed by an individual who saw him head into a car and thrive off. this individual, this witness took a photo of the licence plate and a law enforcement officers were able to track down this vehicle and apprehend the alleged gunmen who is now in custody, we understand. but we don't know at the moment is the motive.

the fbi and secret service are investigating. the fbi is leading the investigation. but one quite striking detail during the questions after that press conference was that this individual was around up to 500 yards away from the former president, so obviously very near considering the type of weapon that the alleged gunmen had. we also understand that he had. we also understand that he had a go pro, which was said to be forfilming what had a go pro, which was said to be for filming what was going on. those are the details we have heard so far. we also have heard from cbs our news partners that the secret service presence around the white house has also been bolstered and we had the statement earlier that the vice

the vehicle description, there was a tag number. we mobilised on the interstate picked up the vehicle, followed for a bit, able to contain using some of our bigger vehicles were used for specialised stops. we got the vehicle stopped. since then the vehicle stopped. since then the fbi and secret service have responded to the scene. it does appear that we certainly had the vehicle involved in mar—a—lago and we have the suspect we were looking for. now the fbi and secret service will take over that investigation what is the process without, now you have identified this vehicle, did you take them into custody or is all going into the hands of the secret service the fbi? we initially took him into custody until the arrival of the federal authorities. the search of the vehicle, looking for any

weapons that may be in their will now be for the federal authorities and us attorney general. authorities and us attorney ueneral. ~ . . , authorities and us attorney ueneral. ~ . ., authorities and us attorney ueneral. . ., ~ general. what was that like, sto - - in . general. what was that like, stopping him. _ general. what was that like, stopping him. i— general. what was that like, stopping him, i know- general. what was that like, stopping him, i know you i general. what was that like, i stopping him, i know you were looking for him, every law enforcement agency in the area was, what was a process like here? i was, what was a process like here? , , , ., , ., , here? i missed the stop. i was on the way _ here? i missed the stop. i was on the way from _ here? i missed the stop. i was on the way from the _ here? i missed the stop. i was on the way from the golf- on the way from the golf course. we knew we had to look out for someone that opened fire. probably not any more, potentially a dangerous situation for our units were completely locked on, ready to 90, completely locked on, ready to go, at the vehicle fled we would have stopped it. i do mean a gunfight we were ready to engage. frankly because of good tactics, getting them out of the vehicle, coming back to us, we were able to stabilise the scene without any further banners. . . , ~., banners. that was the martin county sheriff. _ banners. that was the martin county sheriff. i— wa nt to want to bring you these pictures that we have that have

been published by the security forces there in palm beach. they show two backpacks on the perimeter fence of the golf course. these the security officials say were left by the individual who was present there at the scene. they say they also found a scope, a gopro camera, and crucially an ak-47 gopro camera, and crucially an ak—47 style rifle. these are some of the images, some of the evidence that the secret service, the fbi, as well as the local county sheriff's office have published following the incident earlier today. a reminder of the breaking news that we have coming in from the united states, which is that the former president donald trump is safe following an incident in which gunshots were fired in his vicinity at his

golf course in florida. we will continue to bring you much more on that story. you can always go to our website. where we have a live page. palm beach county sheriff rick bradshaw narrated how the incident unfolded. that bradshaw narrated how the incident unfolded. at 1:30pm, a cocky matchup _ incident unfolded. at 1:30pm, a cocky matchup fired _ incident unfolded. at 1:30pm, a cocky matchup fired called - incident unfolded. at 1:30pm, a cocky matchup fired called in i cocky matchup fired called in by the secret service book. because we were in constant contact with them all the time, we were notified of that and we had unity that immediately sealed up the area. fortunately we were able to locate a witness that came to us and said hey, isaw witness that came to us and said hey, i saw the guy running out of the bushes, he jumped into a black nissan and i took a picture of the vehicle in the

tank. we have that information, our real—time crime scene, put it out to the licence place readers and were able to get a hit on that vehicle on the i95 as it was headed into martin county. we had the whole of martin county sheriff's office, alerted them, and they spotted the vehicle and pulled it over. they detained the guy. after that we took the victim, the witness, that witnessed the incident, flew him up there, and he identified the person he saw running out of the bushes and jumped into the car. in the bushes where this guy was, is an ak—47 style rifle with a scope, two backpacks which were having ceramic tiles on them, and a gopro, which he was going to take pictures of. those would be a process right

now, the secret service agent that was on the course did a fantasticjob. what they do is they have an agent that jumps one hole ahead of time to where the president was at. he was able to spot this rifle barrel sticking out of the fence and immediately engage that individual, at which time the individual took off. that is what we know about the investigation. we have somebody in custody right now that is a potential suspect. we have a little bit more work to do on it, but as we usually do, as soon as we decide we are going to book into the county jail and the charges he will be booked into, we will get those to you and we will get a picture of him and we will get you his background. here we go again. i think we need to get

a lot more information to see the specifics of what happened here. there seems to be a lot of interest if this was an attempt or an incident directed at the former president, as we had about eight weeks ago in pennsylvania. a lot going on here as we move into the home stretch of the election period here in the states. of course we know the secret service is present on the scene. talk us through what the officers will be trying to do at the momentjust in the immediate aftermath of this incident. an investigation like this is basically a reconstruction of the past and they are going to work backwards from the initial point of incident here, whether it was bullets that were heard or seen to be shooting towards the former president or in the vicinity, work their way back, see if we have someone in custody, start to begin to find out what is going on with them, are they having some health issues, mental health issues, drug issues, are they having beef with somebody? they will need to put together a lot of pieces of the puzzle here to see exactly what happened, why it happened and again as an offshoot of butler pennsylvania onjuly 13,

how to make sure these types of things don't continue to happen to former president trump. we understand there were other teams on the ground. we know the local police officers were also there. how will they be working together and will that add a level of confusion as they try to understand what happened today? not at all. the secret service always works in concert with other state, local and federal partners and the secret service relief works by itself with respect of protecting poor president trump or others. the fact that other entities were in and around the area and are able to be there at the very inception of this investigation only helps the process move forward so that we can get some answers in real time. just a reminder of the statement from four president trump. he said, there were gunshots in my vicinity, but before rumours started spiralling out of control, i wanted you to hear this first. i am safe and well. nothing

will slow me down. i will never surrender. i will always love you for supporting me. a reminder of the statement that we had coming in from the vice president kamala harris earlier on today. and in a statement she says, i have been briefed on the reports of gunshots fired nearformer president trump and his property in florida. i am glad he is safe. violence has no place in america. a reminder of the top line is we have coming in on the story, the breaking news from florida. what we understand from security forces operating there, the secret service, fbi as well as the county sheriff's office, is that an individual has been arrested. they say there was an individual spotted with an ak-47 individual spotted with an ak—47 style rifle. secret

service agents then responded, fired multiple shots, the individual ran away and there was a search for the vehicle in which he was in and that is an individual believed to have been the suspect. here watching news news. stay with us. we will be back after this short break. hello. sunday's really brought out a mixture of weather. in the south, we've had some sunshine, temperatures reached 20 degrees, quite pleasant for the time of year. across northern ireland, the weather brightened up through the afternoon, but we also had a couple of bands of rain across the uk, one across england and wales, and a heavier pulse of rain that worked its way into scotland as well. with this weather front, as it pushed into lancashire, things turned rather murky for a time. certainly a lot of low cloud associated with that front. the front in scotland clears away very quickly overnight, but the one in england and walesjust sinks southwards, where it could still be bringing an odd patch of damp weather, an odd bit of drizzle through the night.

quite mild underneath that strip of cloud, but for most of the uk, it's quite a chilly night, with temperatures dropping well down into single figures. now we've still got trouble ahead, with storm boris continuing to bring torrential rain into central europe. it's going to be days before these floods ebb away. for the uk, we get this area of high pressure building through monday, and that's going to be around for most of the week ahead, bringing some fine weather. the main hazard for us is that we could see some mist and fog patches, and i think monday morning, we're probably going to start off with mist and fog across the north and west of the uk, with some poor visibility here. the fog won't last very long, the september sun is still pretty strong and so through the day, most areas will brighten up with plenty of sunshine to look forward to. and the temperatures running quite close to average really at this time of year. average in edinburgh is 17 celsius, average in london is 20 celsius, so 21 celsius is a squeak above. heading into tuesday, the area of high pressure is going to reorientate a little bit, sending some slightly milder air northwards. a weak weather front, meanwhile, could bring a zone of cloudier weather with a few patches of rain across the northern isles,

but otherwise it's another fine and dry day, with mist and fog patches clearing sunny spells to look forward to, and rising temperatures — we're up to 21 degrees in glasgow, 21 celsius for london as well. by wednesday, again, if you do see some mist and fog patches, they're most likely across the north and west of the uk. probably a bit too much in the way of breeze for that across east anglia and southeast england. continuing to get a little bit warmer with top temperatures up to 22 celsius in northern areas of scotland, 20 celsius for western counties of northern ireland, but up to 24 celsius towards parts of southeast england, which is warm for the time of year. and we're going to hang on to this dry and relatively sunny weather really through most of the rest of this week. bye for now.
