(The Hill) — Former President Trump said in a fundraising email Sunday that he “will NEVER SURRENDER” in the wake of what the FBI described as an apparent assassination attempt.

“There were gunshots in my vicinity, but before rumors start spiraling out of control, I wanted you to hear this first: I AM SAFE AND WELL!” the former president said in the email sent Sunday.

“Nothing will slow me down. I will NEVER SURRENDER! I will always love you for supporting me,” Trump continued. 

Trump communications director Steven Cheung said Sunday that “President Trump is safe following gunshots in his vicinity.”

“No further details at this time,” Cheung added.

Anthony Guglielmi, a Secret Service spokesperson, said on X that his agency is working alongside the Palm Beach County Sheriff’s Office in looking into a “protective incident involving former President Donald Trump that occurred shortly before 2 p.m.”

Vice President Harris said on X on Sunday afternoon that she has “been briefed on reports of gunshots fired near former President Trump and his property in Florida, and I am glad he is safe.”

“Violence has no place in America,” Harris added.

In mid-July, Trump faced an assassination attempt at a rally in Pennsylvania in which he was struck on one of his ears, with another man being killed in the same shooting.
