According to the Nassau County Police Department’s Facebook page, the police are currently questioning someone “who might have been training a dog for bomb detection near the site,” and “falsely” reported explosives found.
According to Newsweek, Nausau Police confirmed that they responded after a “suspicious incident” occurred near the rally site on Wednesday morning. However, the police deny finding an explosive device.
After a report circulated on the internet about an explosive at the rally, a Newsweek public information officer said: “We responded to a suspicious incident in the area of the Nassau Coliseum. However, there was no valid evidence of an explosive being found.”
The officer said, “We don’t know where this information came from, but we can confirm that there were no explosives found.”

Authorities in New York, as if the second attempted murder of Donald Trump on Sunday in West Palm Beach (Florida) wasn’t enough, have now found explosives near a vehicle that was to be used for a rally planned in Nassau County in New York.
The police found explosives in a car that was parked near the former President Donald Trump rally on Long Island, just before his speech.
According to sources in the Nassau County Police Department, James Lalino of One America News Network was told by the police that a blue barrel had been removed from the rally site’s perimeter.
The K9 team also reportedly ‘found explosive devices in a vehicle’ during their sweep.
Sources claim that the driver ran into the woods.
No one noticed if he was wearing anything, they only saw him run off. Many cars are parking now, they’re parking in a line on Hempstead Turnpike and just parking on grass. According to a post by X, the source continued to say that they were parking even at Eisenhower Park.
The rally will take place at 7:00 pm Eastern time on Wednesday evening. Trump supporters have already been waiting outside the venue for hours.
