Trump reacts to armed man shot, killed while breaching Mar-a-Lago as police look for motive

Just over 36 hours after a deadly security breach at President Donald Trump’s Mar-a-Lago estate, the president’s Winter White House looks largely unchanged. From the street, it appears to be business as usual, with the same visible security zones, the same law enforcement checkpoints, and no obvious signs of heightened restrictions. But former U.S. Secret Service agent Tim Miller says what’s happening behind the scenes is far from routine. “They’re going to be running this to ground,” Miller said. “They’ll be reviewing every angle of the security breach — how did it happen, what happened?” According to the U.S. Secret Service, the incident happened just after 1:30 a.m. Sunday, when a man crossed into the secure perimeter of Mar-a-Lago, a protected presidential site in Palm Beach. Investigators say the man was armed with a shotgun and carrying a gas can when he was confronted by Secret Service agents and a Palm Beach County Sheriff’s Office deputy. Authorities say officers ordered the man to drop both items. He dropped the gas can, but investigators say he then raised the shotgun toward officers. At that point, agents opened fire. The man was pronounced dead at the scene. No Secret Service agents or deputies were injured. President Trump was not on the property at the time, though officials confirm full presidential-level protection was in place, as Mar-a-Lago remains a protected site even when the president is not present. The man was identified as 21-year-old Austin Tucker Martin of North Carolina. Investigators say Martin had no known criminal history and had been reported missing by his family days earlier. Public records also show Martin’s name tied to a limited liability company — Fresh Sky Illustrations — which was opened last year. The company appears to have sold original, hand-drawn illustrations of golf courses. What investigators still don’t know is why Martin traveled to Florida, why he chose Mar-a-Lago, or what his intent was. “What we don’t know a lot about is why,” Miller said. “It seems strange to all of us that someone — a young man with no previous criminal history — would travel all the way from North Carolina to do something that obviously he considered would cost him his life.” READ MORE: https://13wham.com/news/nation-world/... _______________ Stay up to date with our social media: 13 WHAM on Facebook:   / 13wham   13 WHAM on Twitter:   / 13wham   13WHAM on Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/13whamtv/?h... 13WHAM on TikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/@13wham?lang=en 13 WHAM Daily Local News Digest:    • 13WHAM Local News Digest   For more information, visit https://13wham.com/ Have a news tip?
