Secret Service discovers hunting stand with direct sight line to Trump’s Air Force One exit in Florida

The U.S. Secret Service on Thursday discovered a suspicious hunting stand near the Palm Beach International Airport with a direct sight line to where President Donald Trump exits Air Force One, the agency confirmed to NBC News on Sunday.

The FBI is now leading an investigation into the discovery, Anthony Guglielmi, a spokesperson for the U.S. Secret Service, said in a statement.

“The U.S. Secret Service is working closely with the FBI and our law enforcement partners in Palm Beach County. During advance security preparations prior to the Palm Beach arrival, which included the use of technology and comprehensive physical sweeps, our teams identified items of interest near Palm Beach International Airport,” Guglielmi said.

He added that, “there was no impact to any movements and no individuals were present or involved at the location.”

Fox News first reported the discovery.

Trump traveled to Florida on Friday and is spending the weekend in West Palm Beach, where he often stays at his Mar-a-Lago resort to play golf.

President Donald Trump detailed the next phase of his administration’s deployment of military troops to American cities as part of “Operation Summer Heat.”
