A young man walked into one of the most heavily guarded properties in America — and never walked out.
Sirens, gunfire, a gas can, a shotgun raised in the dark. Within seconds, a 21-year-old from
North Carolina lay dead at the gates of Donald Trump’s Florida estate,

and for a nation already on edge, the answers may come slowly—if they come at all.
