Three teens armed with loaded AK-47 jump wall at Donald Trump’s Mar-a-Lago resort, cops say – but they were just ‘lost’

THREE teens armed with a loaded AK-47 jumped a wall at President Donald Trump’s Mar-a-Lago resort.

The 15-year-old boys were quickly arrested on Friday after the trespassing incident at Trump‘s private club in Florida, Palm Beach Police revealed Wednesday.

“They had no idea where they were,” Palm Beach Police Spokesman Michael Ogrodnick said.

A semiautomatic gun was found in a backpack carried by the teens.

The gun – a Mini Draco 7.62 caliber AK-47, which the teens claimed they didn’t own – had a loaded 14-round magazine, WPTV reported.

A police report revealed that the teens were seen sitting in a parked car early Friday morning by a police officer.

The teens’ car, silver Hyundai, was located about 2 miles from Mar-a-Lago when the Palm Beach officer turned on his emergency vehicle lighting – prompting the car to speed in the direction of Mar-a-Lago

Ogrodnick said the teens stopped their car when they noticed another cop in the area and ran to a wall to hid.

But the wall they jumped belonged to Trump’s Mar-a-Lago resort.

Officers, a helicopter, and a police canine aided in finding the teens.

However, they remain in a juvenile detention facility as prosecutors are determining whether they will be charged as adults.

According to Ogrodnick, if President Trump or his family members were at Mar-A-Lago at the time of the incident, the teens might have been shot by Secret Service agents.
