  "summary": "An armed man, identified as 38-year-old Jeanine John Taele from Downey, California, was arrested at President Donald Trump's golf course in Rancho Palos Verdes, Los Angeles, two days before the US leader's visit on Tuesday, Aug 4. The suspect was spotted by plainclothes federal agents taking photographs and videos and monitoring security-planning activities at the golf course. Upon his arrest, deputies recovered a 16-round magazine containing hollow-point ammunition from Taele's pants pocket and later found a loaded pistol and additional hollow-point ammunition in his vehicle. Further searches of Taele's home revealed an assault-style rifle, a bulletproof vest, high-capacity magazines, ammunition, two radios, and multiple notebooks with concerning statements. The Los Angeles County District Attorney's Office will decide whether to file charges after presenting the case to investigators. Trump, who has been a target of assassination attempts since launching his presidential campaign, was hosting a fundraising dinner at the golf club when the incident occurred.",
