Two female suspects are in police custody after breaching two security checkpoints at President Donald Trump’s private Mar-a-Lago club on Friday, law enforcement officials said.
In a statement via the Palm Beach Sheriff’s Office, Florida Highway Patrol troopers were trailing a black SUV when it rammed through the checkpoints at around 11:40 a.m. EST, prompting officers to open fire as the suspects sped toward the front of the property.
The suspects were arrested after state highway troops and a PBSO helicopter located them on-site.
Both the Federal Bureau of Investigations and the Florida Department of Law Enforcement are investigating the incident.
Details about possible injuries are currently unknown.
