Former NBA player Rex Chapman has urged the media to shift their focus from a reported second assassination attempt on former President Donald Trump to issues surrounding Haitian migrants in Springfield, Ohio. Chapman criticized the media for their coverage of the assassination attempt, which involved a suspect allegedly pointing an AK-47 at Trump, and instead called for reporting on rising crime and viral claims of stolen pets in Springfield, where around 20,000 Haitians have settled. He condemned political violence but questioned why Trump had not similarly condemned bomb threats against schools in the area, which he attributed to the former President's rhetoric. The assassination attempt is being investigated after Secret Service agents reportedly fired at the suspect. Chapman, who has a history of spreading misinformation, has faced backlash for his comments regarding the assassination attempt. Trump's camp has confirmed that he is safe following the incident at his golf course.
