Donald Trump's failed assassination attempt: Authorities give security update for 1st rally in aftermath
Authorities in a suburban New York county that will host President Trump’s first campaign rally since he survived a second assassination attempt are delivering a security briefing as they prepare for the 2024 Republican candidate’s arrival.
Nassau County Executive Bruce Blakeman and Police Commissioner Patrick Ryder sought to reassure voters of their security measures at a news briefing ahead of the event.
Trump will rally supporters at the Nassau Veterans Memorial Coliseum Wednesday evening – just days after the U.S. Secret Service opened fire on an armed man who pointed a rifle at him from the perimeter of his golf course in West Palm Beach, Florida.

The suspect in that case, Ryan Wesley Routh, made his first appearance in federal court earlier Monday. He is facing federal charges of felony possession of a firearm and possessing a gun with its serial number defaced.
More charges could be likely as the investigation continues.
On July 13, another gunman opened fire at the Trump rally in Butler County, Pennsylvania.

Thomas Matthew Crooks, 20, killed a 50-year-old father of two named Corey Comperatore, critically wounded David Dutch, 57, and James Copenhaver, 74, according to authorities.
He struck the former president in his right ear.

Counter-snipers returned fire and killed him, but the security lapse that allowed him to climb onto a rooftop with a clear line of sight to the former president prompted multiple investigations and a shakeup at the top ranks of the Secret Service.

The Colgate men’s basketball team mounted a furious second-half rally Saturday but couldn’t complete an 18-point comeback, falling to Navy 84-80 in overtime at Cotterell Court.
Jalen Cox delivered a game-high 30 points along with seven assists, five rebounds, and three steals for the Raiders. The guard forced overtime by scoring the final four points of regulation, including two free throws in the last eight seconds that tied the game at 77-77. Cox also disrupted a potential game-winning shot attempt by Navy’s Austin Benigni at the regulation buzzer.
Navy dominated early, building a 36-18 lead in the first half with help from three 3-pointers by Jordan Pennick. The Midshipmen took a 48-28 advantage into halftime.
The Raiders clawed back after intermission. Cox sparked the comeback by scoring or assisting on Colgate’s first 17 second-half points, trimming the deficit to 51-45 with more than 15 minutes remaining. Back-to-back 3-pointers from Kyle Carlesimo later knotted the score at 55-55, and Andrew Alekseyenko’s triple gave Colgate its biggest lead at 61-59 with 8:47 left.
Alekseyenko finished with 19 points and 10 rebounds for his fourth double-double of the season. His five 3-pointers set a career high. Josh Ahayere added 12 points and five rebounds, while Carlesimo scored nine points.
The overtime period became a defensive battle, with both teams combining to shoot just 1-for-10 from the field. Alekseyenko missed a go-ahead 3-point attempt with 10 seconds remaining, and Benigni sealed Navy’s victory at the free-throw line.
The defeat ended Colgate’s 13-game winning streak against Navy and marked the Midshipmen’s first victory at Cotterell Court since January 2016. The Raiders have lost four conference games this season by a combined 10 points and dropped to 1-3 in overtime contests.
