Police officers shot and wounded a man who exchanged gunfire with them and shouted about President Trump on Friday at the Trump National Doral Golf Club in Florida, officials said.
The man, who was not immediately identified, was shot at about 1:30 a.m. in the marble-floored lobby of the club’s hotel, which is owned by the Trump Organization, after the police received a report of an active gunman.
“What officers did today was nothing short of heroic,” Juan Perez, the director of the Miami-Dade Police Department, said at a news conference outside the club. “They did not hesitate one second to engage an individual who was actively shooting in the lobby of the hotel.”
“He was yelling and spewing some information about President Trump,” Mr. Perez said, “and he had an American flag that he did drape over the counter.”
