The FBI is investigating whether there was another assassination attempt on Republican presidential candidate Donald Trump.
The incident took place on Sunday at the Trump International Golf Club in West Palm Beach, Florida, where former President Trump was playing golf.
Law enforcement officials said the Secret Service spotted a man in the bushes with a rifle and opened fire on the suspected killer.
According to police, the suspect fled into the bushes and was later apprehended on the highway.
Previous attempt on Trump
In July, Trump was shot by a gunman during a campaign rally in Pennsylvania in what the FBI said was an assassination attempt. The former president was injured in his ear.
The Congressional Research Service says there have been at least 15 separate direct attacks against presidents, presidents-elect and candidates, five of which resulted in death.
Below is a list of previous attacks on American leaders, whether they were successful or not.
The murders
Four American presidents have been assassinated while in office.
