Just days after the attempted assassination of former President Donald Trump in Butler, Pennsylvania, authorities have arrested a man found with an AK-47 rifle near a Republican National Convention event in Philadelphia.
The arrest comes as Trump made a defiant appearance at the convention on Monday, sporting a bandage on his ear from the gunshot wound he sustained in the attack. The crowd warmly welcomed him with chants of “Fight”, echoing his resilient spirit in the aftermath of the shooting.
President Joe Biden has faced criticism for his remarks following the assassination attempt, acknowledging an error in mentioning he was “to put in a-eye” when condemning the attack. Investigators are meticulously examining the shooter’s movements and timeline to uncover the motive behind the Trump attack.

According to a CNN analysis, attendees at the rally spotted the assailant on a neighboring building’s rooftop almost 2 minutes before the shooting occurred. The arrest of the man with an AK-47 near the convention raises further concerns about security lapses in the aftermath of the first attempted assassination of a U.S. president or major party presidential candidate since the 1981 attack on Ronald Reagan.
As the nation grapples with the aftermath of the shooting, both Trump and Biden have called for calm and unity. The investigation into the assassination attempt and the latest arrest continues, with authorities working to ensure the safety of political leaders and the democratic process.
