Assassination Attempt on Former US President Donald Trump: Suspect’s Bizarre Behavior Raises Concerns

The suspect accused of attempting to assassinate former US President Donald Trump, the Republican presidential candidate, has been confirmed to have installed a high-performance filming device, a GoPro, at the scene of the incident. There are even concerns that he may have attempted to film the assassination scene himself or broadcast it live on the internet.

According to the Associated Press and other sources, authorities found an AK-47-style assault rifle with a scope in the bushes at the Trump International Golf Club in Florida where the suspect was aiming the gun. A GoPro and two bags were hanging on the fence right in front.

GoPro is a representative product of the ‘action camcorder’ developed specifically for filming sports and leisure activities. It is an ultra-compact device with a wide-angle function that is easy to carry and is often used for everyday outdoor shooting. It is also useful for live streaming on the Internet.

The fact that the GoPro was mounted on a fence at the scene where the rifle was found naturally raises the suspicion that the suspect was attempting to film the shooting and its aftermath.

The AK-47 rifle left behind by the suspect is the most commonly seen automatic rifle in conflict zones around the world. It is considered the worst weapon in the history of firearms.

The AK-47 can be learned in 1-2 hours and has few minor malfunctions. It is estimated that over 100 million units have been distributed worldwide since it was developed in the former Soviet Union in 1947.

It is used by government forces, rebels, terrorist groups, mafia, and private security guards all over the world. It is notorious as the most used tool for murder in the world.

The second assassination attempt on former President Trump occurred on the afternoon of the same day at a golf course owned by him. The suspect was hiding about 274 to 457 meters away from where former President Trump was playing golf and aimed a gun at him. Secret Service agents discovered him and shot him. The suspect dropped the rifle and fled in a car before being arrested by local sheriffs.

The suspect has been identified as a 58-year-old white male living in Hawaii. Based on the crime weapon, investigators believe it was an assassination attempt. However, the suspect has remained silent, so the motive for the crime has not yet been clearly revealed.
