A man shouting about Donald Trump entered the president's south Florida golf resort early Friday, draped a flag over a lobby counter, and exchanged fire with police officers before being arrested, the police said.
One officer received an unspecified injury, officials said.
The police were notified of an "active shooter" in the Trump-owned Trump National Doral Golf Club near Miami about 1:30 a.m., Doral Police Chief Hernan Organvidez told
The police identified the suspect as Jonathan Oddi, 42, who they say lived at a nearby apartment complex. According to initial reports, Oddi suffered multiple gunshot wounds to the leg after being fired upon by police officers.
Miami-Dade Police Director Juan Perez said the man was shouting about Trump and "actively shooting."
"He was yelling and spewing some information about President Trump and that's what we know so far," Perez said. "And he had an American flag that he did drape over the counter."
Trump was not at the club at the time.
Perez said a Doral officer received an unspecified injury.
"You know, these officers did not hesitate one second to engage this individual that was actively shooting in the lobby of the hotel," he said. "They risked their lives knowing that that they had to get in there to save lives in that hotel."
Eric Trump, the president's son and executive vice president of the Trump Organization, tweeted early Friday, "A huge thank you to the incredible men and women" of the departments, adding that "every day they keep our community safe."
Perez said the US Secret Service was on the scene, and the FBI was on the way, but that the local police were in charge for the time being.
The Secret Service issued a statement saying agents from the Miami Field Office were at the scene and working closely with other agencies.
It added, "No Secret Service protectees or security operations were impacted as a result of the shooting."
Mayor JC Bermudez of Doral said officials did not believe the incident was related to terrorism, The Miami Herald reports. "Thank God no one was hurt," Bermudez added.
The large golf facility in the growing suburb was surrounded by a heavy police presence Friday morning, and news helicopters hovered over the scene. The entrances were blocked, and yellow caution tape was stretched across the main gate. A Miami-Dade crime-scene truck was parked inside the gate.
The golf resort previously known as the Doral Resort & Spa was purchased by the Trump Organization in 2012. Its signature course is the Blue Monster at Doral.
The Trump National Doral, which includes several buildings for lodging and an expansive clubhouse, is among the largest hotels in the Miami suburb. It's about 8 miles from Miami International Airport.
Its website describes it as an 800-acre resort with 643 guest rooms, more than 100,000 square feet of event space, and four golf courses.
In June 2016, the PGA Tour announced that the prestigious World Golf Championship hosted at the Trump National Doral since 2007 would relocate to Mexico. The announcement infuriated then-candidate Trump, who called the move to Mexico a "sad day for Miami, the United States and the game of golf." Trump said in a Fox News interview with Sean Hannity that "I hope they have kidnapping insurance."
PGA Tour Commissioner Tim Finchem said the move had nothing to do with
