Suspect Says He Wanted to Kill Trump
警方上周六在拉斯维加斯逮捕了一名英国人,原因是其企图杀死共和党总统候选人唐纳德·特朗普。
Michael Steven Sandford attended a Trump campaign event in Las Vegas. The complaint says he tried to take a gun from a police officer who was providing security.
迈克尔·史蒂芬·桑福德参加了特朗普在拉斯维加斯的竞选活动。控方称他试图从一名安保警察手里获得一把手枪。
The Secret Service wrote in the court document, "Sandford claimed he had been planning to attempt to kill Trump for about a year.” The document, however, does not provide any motive.
联邦经济情报局在法院公文中写道:“桑得福声称他已经为杀死邓普计划了将近一年。”但是,该公文中并未透露任何杀人动机。
Sandford told officials that the first time he fired a gun was last Friday when he went to a Las Vegas gun range to learn how to shoot.
桑得福告诉有关官员,他第一次开枪是上周五,当时他去拉斯维加斯一个射击靶场学习如何射击。
He went on to say that if he were released from custody, he would try again to kill Trump. Sandford told officials that if he had not acted in Las Vegas, he would have acted at a Trump campaign event in Arizona.
他还说,如果他拘留后被释放,他会在此尝试杀了特朗普。桑得福告诉官方,如果他没在阿拉斯加动手,他就会在亚利桑那州的特朗普竞选活动时动手了。
The complaint says Sandford "was convinced he would be killed by law enforcement during his attempt on Trump's life."
控方称桑得福“深信在他试图杀死特朗普时会被执行死刑”。
He is scheduled to appear in court on July 5.
按计划他将于7月5日被审。
