US police release details on third Trump assassination attempt

Riverside County Sheriff Chad Bianco has released details on the third assassination attempt on former US president Donald Trump, saying it was not something they were taking “lightly”.

“We had a very detailed plan in place on how we were going to keep, not only the former president safe, but all of the participants … of the rally safe,” Mr Bianco said during a press conference.

“We had a larger outside perimeter and then an inside perimeter that was completely controlled by us.”
