Florida Republican Gov. Ron DeSantis said state law enforcement will investigate Sunday's attempted assassination of President Donald Trump.
The Secret Service foiled what the FBI called an apparent assassination attempt on the Trump while he was golfing at his Trump International Golf Club in West Palm Beach, Florida.
The FBI is investigating the alleged attempt, CNN reported.
"The State of Florida will be conducting its own investigation regarding the attempted assassination at Trump International Golf Club," DeSantis posted Sunday night on X. "The people deserve the truth about the would be assassin and how he was able to get within 500 yards of the former president and current GOP nominee."
USSS agents fired on a gunman in the bushes after he was spotted near the edge of Trump's golf course, a few hundred yards from where the former president was playing on Sunday, law enforcement officials said.
The suspect was arrested after fleeing the scene in a vehicle, leaving behind two backpacks and an AK-47-style assault rifle.
It was the second assassination attempt on Trump in two months. He was grazed in the right ear when a gunman fired on him at a campaign rally on July 13 in Butler, Pennsylvania. That shooter was killed in return fire by security agents.
