Explosives Allegedly Found Near Donald Trump’s Rally Site

Authorities reportedly discovered “explosives” in a vehicle near former US President Donald Trump’s rally site on Long Island, ahead of his scheduled speech on Wednesday evening. If confirmed, this would mark another serious security breach following an attempted assassination just three days earlier at his Palm Beach golf club.

Nassau County Police Department allegedly told One America News Network journalist James Lalino that the rally site ‘perimeter was breached and a blue barrel was removed.’

In addition, during the K9 sweep they apparently ‘found an explosive device in one of the vehicles.’

The sources allegedly said the driver ended up running into the woods.

‘No one saw if he had anything on him, they just saw him take off running. A lot of cars are now parking, they’re lining up on Hempstead Turnpike, just parking on the grass. Even over at Eisenhower Park, they’re just parking over there,’ the source went on to tell Lalino according to a post on X.

Thousands of MAGA fans are expected to descend upon Long Island this afternoon ahead of the 7 p.m. ET rally at the Nassau Coliseum.

On Sunday, Secret Service agents fired at the suspect, Ryan Wesley Routh, 58, after spotting the barrel of his gun protruding from a fence at Trump’s West Palm Beach golf course.

Routh was subsequently arrested by local police. The new incident raises fresh concerns over the security surrounding the former president.
