He was released on bail and faces a court hearing on January 2, AFP reported.<\/p>\n<p>But coming on the heels of two assassination attempts \u2013 one in Pennsylvania in which a bullet grazed Trump\u2019s ear, and a second, aborted attempt at his Florida golf course \u2013 the arrest raised concerns.<\/p>\n<p>Both incidents highlight the challenges of keeping presidential candidates safe in a hotly contested and polarized campaign with just over seven weeks to go before the November 5 election.<\/p>\n<p>There was no immediate comment from either the Trump campaign or the U.S. Secret Service, which is charged with protecting top officials and candidates.<\/p>\n<p>The sheriff\u2019s office said it would provide additional details at a briefing later. Riverside County Sheriff Chad Bianco addressed Trump supporters at the rally in Coachella on Saturday.<\/p>\n<p>Trump\u2019s decision to hold a rally in California surprised political analysts, who note that the state is heavily Democratic, but he drew a large crowd, even in temperatures near 100 Fahrenheit (38 Celsius).<\/p>\n<p>Coachella is known for its annual music festival.<\/p><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"mail-message-footer spacer collapsible\" style=\"text-align: justify;\"><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<!-- AddThis Advanced Settings generic via filter on the_content --><!-- AddThis Share Buttons generic via filter on the_content --><!-- AddThis Related Posts generic via filter on the_content -->","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The operatives of Sheriff Deputies assigned to protect a Donald Trump rally in Coachella, California in the United States have foiled another assassination attempt on the former president.
