You must be able to see through the fences, at least at that point in the perimeter; the press often takes very long-distance photos of him playing. And apparently the perp's gun was sticking through the fence. That's what the Secret Service saw.
Val Demings said the "witness" was law enforcement. Presumably she'd been told that by former colleagues. The witness took the photos of the AK-47 and the backpacks. And of the perp's license plate.
His name is Ryan Wesley Rout. The spelling may be wrong. No news about him yet, but there will be soon.
Naturally people are wondering if it's significant that the gun was a Russian AK-47, naturally. Apparently they're fairly rare.
I agree. And no, apparently he did not shoot it.
Today's wannabe has just been identified: His name is Ryan Wesley Rout (not sure of the spelling). He was born in the late 60s. No more information has appeared, but it will very soon, I should think.
And of course he's alive, and will talk.
Far left trying to take out their political opponent via several methods.
I beg your pardon? The attempt in which Trumpty's ear was nicked by a shard of something was the work of a registered Republican.

Yes, but they've already said the shots were fired by the Secret Service. They'd seen his gun poking out from a bush. They shot at him, and he ran off to his car and drove away.
Here's the photo of the perp's stuff:

I know. I just posted to the last person who'd had something to say about this company.
I'm surprised not much else has been reported about the rally shooter...
Why? They never seem to identify them immediately. It seems that often names are leaked. Here're the photos of the perp's gun and the two backpacks, but the cops didn't release the ones with his license plate. They'd make it very easy to identify him.

I've actually lived in New York, unlike you. And I knew some people in real estate.
LOLOL!! Read my other posts. The guy was spotted by the Secret Service, ran to his car, and took off like a bat outta hell. He was picked up 45 miles to the north.
Didn’t seem like he was considered a bad guy until the democrats said he was …
He was. From the beginning of his career in New York City.
Evidently the Secret Service was checking out Trump's planned route before him, and saw the would-be shooter before Trump was playing nearby. So independent of the guy who took the photos, they saw the shooter. The shooter was able to see two holes of the course. Trump was one hole behind them. About 300-500 yards away.
But the Secret Service saw the guy and shot at him. That's when he ran to his car, leaving the gun and backpacks behind, and took off.
Val Demings was just interviewed on MSNBC, and said that the guy who saw the shooter and took photos of his license plate was a law enforcement officer. Don't know if that's right, but she'd have sources reporters don't have, given that she's worked in law enforcement.
Or, as Blackcat suggested, perhaps an angry Swiftie. But the press conference is now over; it seems clear the only person involved was the one they picked up 45 miles north of the golf course.
But he hasn't yet been identified (to us), and nobody's talking about motive.
What account?
LOLOLOL!! It'd be crazy if the guy turns out to be a Swiftie.
Who tweeted that? It doesn't seem to be true.

Press conference with Palm Beach County police:
It happened around 1:30. Someone called them to say he'd seen the guy running out of the bushes. The guy then jumped into his car. The observer took photos of his license plate.
The rifle was found in the bushes with two backpacks and a camera.
But they still haven't said who fired the shots, and why. Now, however, they say the Secret Service opened fire on the guy. I gather they missed. The guy himself apparently didn't fire at anyone.
I have NO idea.
People on Twitter are speculating about that.
The guy was outside the golf course's perimeter fence. I don't know whether he'd have had any shot at Trumpty.
It seems--at least for now--that he jumped in his car and drove north. He got 45 miles away from the golf course. The FBI said he offered no resistance to being arrested, and had a flat affect.
I believe you're right.
The FBI is now saying it was an "attempted assassination".
I suppose... And of course Trumpty is trying to fundraise on it:

Oh yes, and then some. But interestingly, earlier today we got this:
BREAKING: Laura Loomer just got banned from Trump’s plane, per reports

Yes. Seems there may have been two people involved. Still waiting for the press conference.
This time he was nowhere nearby, it seems. He was on the golf course, and he heard the shots, but that's all, really.
It was the Secret Service that fired, apparently. And they've taken the guy with the gun into custody. But now they're saying the guy was taken into custody 45 miles away from the golf course??
That does not make a whole lotta sense.
Now we will get all the facts. pic.twitter.com/mmEhEW3dz1

He isn't very good at this stuff.
Uh-oh...

Couldn't agree with you more.
Some on Twitter are suggesting it might have been a setup. But that was suggested last time, too.
It still isn't clear what happened. From some accounts, it seems as if it was the Secret Service who fired the shots people heard. The guy they were shooting at had an assault rifle. He was taken into custody.
There's going to be a press conference at around 4:30.
As we await a briefing from officials, here's what CNN knows so far: A person has been detained connected to the incident at Trump International Golf Club, according to a law enforcement source. Secret Service fired at the suspect, according to multiple sources, and a long gun…

Vance isn't even good at trying to explain his lies:
FACE THE NATION
Transcript: Sen. JD Vance on "Face the Nation with Margaret Brennan," Sep. 15, 2024

Some Haitians have been there over 5 years.
Longer than that. The city invited them to come in 2014.
Yes. To some extent. But he can do both: try to manipulate the stock to get as much as he can when he sells, and be stupid enough not to understand how exchange halts work.
This morning he acknowledged telling deliberate lies; that he repeated a story he knew was false to bring attention to his "cause".
That is contemptible.
Yes, I think that's possible. Though she may not care. After all, he hangs out with Alina Habba a lot, and has done for several years now.
Interesting. Now how will she react? Will someone pay her not to make a fuss?
And apparently she hasn't lost $150 million, either.
