Two people are being held in custody after a black vehicle breached two security checkpoints at United States President Donald Trump's Mar-a-Lago resort in Florida, according to media reports on Friday hours ahead of the president's planned trip there.
The vehicle was heading to the property's main entrance, NBC News said, citing the Palm Beach County Sheriff's office.
"The vehicle fled while being pursued" by the highway patrol and a helicopter, read a statement from the Palm Beach Sheriff's Office cited by US media including CNN and NBC.
"The vehicle has now been located and two individuals are currently in custody," it said.
Local reports said a bridge that leads to the Palm Beach resort had been shut down and a heavy police presence was in the area.
Trump was scheduled to leave Washington, DC, for his resort later on Friday afternoon.
