From CNN:

The man who opened fire at the Trump National Doral Golf Club early Friday had been yelling “anti-Trump … rhetoric” there, Miami-Dade police Director Juan Perez said.

The suspect is a 42-year-old resident of Doral, Florida, and is in stable condition after police shot him in an exchange of gunfire, Perez said. A Doral police officer suffered broken bones but was not shot, Perez said.

The gunman took a flag from a pole in the rear of the complex, brought it into the hotel lobby, draped it over a counter, yelled rhetoric against President Donald Trump and fired a gun into the air — at the roof and chandeliers, Perez said.
