New York police Dismiss Reports of Explosives Near trump Rally
The New York police have refuted claims that explosives were found in a vehicle near former President Donald Trump's rally site on Long Island. In a statement on X, the New York State police clarified that "reports of explosives found outside the Nassau Coliseum in Uniondale this morning are unfounded." They emphasized that no explosives were located and confirmed their assistance with security for the event alongside Nassau County police and the U.S. Secret Service.
These reports surfaced just days after a second assassination attempt on Trump. The rally was scheduled for 7 p.m. at the Nassau Veterans Memorial Coliseum in Uniondale.
This past Sunday, Secret service agents confronted Ryan Wesley Routh, 58, after noticing a gun barrel protruding from a fence at Trump’s golf course in West Palm Beach, Florida. Routh was subsequently taken into custody after he allegedly camped out with food and a rifle near the golf course.
trump had previously faced an assassination attempt on July 13 during a rally in Butler, Pennsylvania, when 20-year-old Thomas Matthew Crooks opened fire with an AR-style rifle. The attack resulted in one death and two injuries in the audience, and Crooks was shot and killed by a Secret service sniper at the scene.
