Security Ramped Up at RNC and Trump Tower Post-Assassination Attempt
Just hours after Donald Trump narrowly escaped assassination, Secret Service agents and local police went into overdrive securing Trump Tower and the site of this week’s Republican National Convention in Milwaukee.
Photos from both sites showed an influx of rifle-toting officers securing the facilities, with New York City Deputy Mayor Fabien Levy announcing security at Trump Tower was beefed up out of an abundance of caution—not because of a particular threat.
Mayor Eric Adams added himself that he was “surging officers to certain sites across” the city, with Trump Tower undoubtedly among them.
