== 2017 forklift attack attempt ==
On September 6, 2017, in [[Mandan, North Dakota]], Gregory Lee Leingang stole a [[forklift]] from an oil refinery and attempted to drive it toward the presidential [[motorcade]] while Trump was visiting to rally public support. After the forklift became jammed within the refinery, he fled on foot and was arrested by the pursuing police. While interviewed in detention, Leingang admitted his intent to murder the president by flipping the [[Presidential state car (United States)|presidential limousine]] with the stolen forklift, to the surprise of authorities, who had assumed he was stealing the vehicle for personal use.
