A man was shot and killed by law enforcement at Mar-a-Lago, former President Donald Trump's Florida resort, after he was seen carrying a shotgun and a fuel can near the property's north gate. The U.S. Secret Service confirmed the incident, stating that the man posed a potential threat. Authorities have not yet disclosed the identity of the individual or the specific circumstances leading to the shooting.
