According to the former president, he was playing golf with his friends, including businessman Steve Witkoff when the group heard gunshots.&nbsp; 
Regarding the number of gunshots, he added, “And I guess probably four or five, and it sounded like bullets, but what do I know about that.” 
Trump further stated, “We’re in the group and everybody just, we got into the carts, and we moved along pretty good. I was with an agent, and the agent did a fantastic job.”&nbsp;

Rowe mentioned, “With reports of gunfire, the former president’s close protection detail immediately evacuated the president to a safe location.”
