Outside Trump National Doral, where police responded to reports of a shooting around 1:30 a.m. today.

A man ranting about President Donald Trump and holding a large American flag walked into the lobby of Trump National Doral Miami resort early Friday morning, laid the flag down on the main counter and began firing rounds.

Then, according to police, the man — who was not a guest at the resort — waited in the lobby for police to arrive before luring them into a gunfight.

During the gunfight, the man, whose name has not been released, was struck several times in the lower body. No workers at the resort or patrons were injured. A Doral cop hurt his wrist.
