The suspect involved in the shooting incident at Donald Trump’s golf club was unarmed when taken into custody in a neighboring county, Martin County Sheriff William Snyder tells WPTV.
The man had a calm, flat demeanor and showed little emotion when he was stopped by police, Snyder says, adding that the suspect did not question why he was being pulled over.
“He never asked, ‘what is this about?’ Obviously, law enforcement with long rifles, blue lights, a lot going on. He never questioned it,” Snyder says.
Also, Trump sends an email to his fundraising list saying there were “gunshots in my vicinity, but before rumors start spiraling out of control, I wanted you to hear this first: I AM SAFE AND WELL!” according to an email seen by Reuters.
