U.S. Secret Service agents killed man trying to unlawfully enter Trump’s Mar-a-Lago
- U.S. Secret Service agents and a Palm Beach County Sheriff's deputy shot and killed a man after he breached Mar-a-Lago's secure perimeter around 1.30 a.m. on February 22, 2026 near the property's north gate.
- Near the property’s north gate, officers confronted a white male in his early 20s carrying a gas can and shotgun, who ignored repeated commands before raising the shotgun, prompting officers to fire.
- Investigators identified the man as 21-year-old Austin Tucker Martin, and a box for the firearm was recovered from the suspect's vehicle after his family recently reported him missing.
- The FBI has taken the lead in the probe and is coordinating with local and federal partners; involved U.S. Secret Service agents are on routine administrative leave, and nearby homeowners were asked to check cameras.
- The incident adds to Mar-a-Lago's history of trespassing incidents and comes amid recent incidents of political violence and assassination attempts across the U.S., with President Donald Trump and First Lady Melania Trump at the White House and no protectees present.
