Police on New York’s Long Island on Sept. 18 disputed claims that explosives were found at Nassau Coliseum ahead of an event with former President Donald Trump, just days after the former president was the target of a second apparent assassination attempt in Florida.
A statement released by the Nassau County Police Department’s commissioner, Patrick Ryder, said that earlier reports of explosives being detected “are unfounded” and that an individual is being questioned “who may have been training a bomb detection dog near the site.”
