Presidential elections are to be held in the US in November this year. Political rallies are going on for this. Meanwhile, a case of lapse in the security of Donald Trump, who is contesting as a Republican leader, has come to light.

According to the Riverside County Sheriff's Department, Trump's election rally was to be held in Coachella, California on Saturday. A person was arrested near the rally site. The man is accused of illegally possessing a loaded gun and a magazine of high-capacity cartridges.

Police said that the suspect has been identified as Vem Miller, who was stopped by the police at a checkpoint about half a mile from the rally entrance.

Was there a preparation for a third attack on Trump?

Riverside County Sheriff Chad Bianco said, we have possibly stopped another assassination attempt. He further said that Vem Miller was plotting to assassinate Trump.

When the 49-year-old suspect, a resident of Las Vegas, was caught by the authorities, he not only had guns, but he also had fake press IDs and VIP passes. The suspect was driving a black SUV that was stopped at a security checkpoint outside Trump's rally.

The accused was released

Miller was charged with illegally possessing a loaded gun and ammunition. But Miller was released on a bail of US$5,000 the same day.

Police said Miller is considered a member of a right-wing anti-government organization.

The Sheriff's Office released a press note. In which he said that the incident did not affect the safety of former President Trump or the people present at the event.

A joint federal statement was issued by the US Attorney's Office, the US Secret Service and the FBI regarding the incident.

The statement said that the US Attorney's Office, the US Secret Service and the FBI are aware of the arrest made by the Riverside County Sheriff's Office on Saturday. The US Secret Service assesses that the incident did not affect protective operations and former President Trump was not in any danger. Although no federal arrests have been made at this time, the investigation is ongoing.

The statement further said that the US Attorney's Office, the US Secret Service and the FBI express their gratitude to the officers and local partners who helped ensure the security of last night's event.

Trump has been attacked before as well

In July, during a rally in Butler, Pennsylvania, Trump narrowly escaped death when a gunman's bullet grazed his ear.

In September, another man was accused of trying to assassinate Trump when Secret Service agents found him hiding with a rifle near Trump's Palm Beach golf course.
