An Orlando woman was detained after driving to Mar-a-Lago and demanding to speak with Donald Trump – allegedly telling Secret Service agents she had guns inside her van. 

Caroline Shaw, was arrested after she made the odd request to chat with Trump at the gates of the exclusive Palm Beach club on July 7 at around 10pm. 

The 49-year-old told agents she had an ‘urgent message for the president’ and claimed she was carrying firearms in the Mercedes van she parked down the road, according to court documents reviewed by Fox News. 

Once she shared the alarming detail, authorities detained the late-night visitor and seized the van for ‘further investigation.’ 

It is unclear if investigators found any weapons inside the vehicle, which was discovered to be unregistered since 2021. 

Shaw has also had a suspended license since 2023, according to records.

She was booked into Palm Beach County Jail on driving on a suspended license and failure to register a motor vehicle charges.

The following day, she appeared in court and pleaded not guilty to both charges.

But the judge barred her from approaching Trump or trying to enter any of his properties, including Mar-a-Lago, which the president purchased in 1985. 

As of Thursday night, Shaw remains in custody on a $2,000 bond, according to the Palm Beach Sheriff’s Office. 

It is unclear what Shaw’s ‘message’ for the Republican president was.

This Mar-a-Lago scare was just the latest concerning incident involving someone trying to infiltrate the heavily-secured resort.

Last month, a man stormed the property, allegedly in a creepy attempt to propose to Trump’s teenage granddaughter, Kai Trump.

Anthony Thomas Reyes, 23, also said he wanted to ‘spread the gospel’ after he was discovered by Secret Service in the middle of the night. 

Reyes allegedly told officers he climbed over the towering wall which surrounds the members-only club in search of Kai, who just turned 18 in May. 

He was arrested and charged with trespassing with intent to commit an offense. His $5,000 bond was posted the day following his detainment.

Several brave individuals have made bold attempts to make their way onto the members-only club’s property

Bijan Arceo, a 32-year-old former real estate agent, was arrested after he jumped the fence to get into Mar-a-Lago just two days after Trump’s inauguration in January.

He was charged with trespassing with the intent to commit an offense. His bond was set at $2,000 and he was released from custody about two weeks after his arrest.

In November 2024, Chinese national Zijie Li, 39, of Los Angeles, was arrested after making multiple attempts over the span of five months to get past security.

Li had repeatedly claimed he wanted to speak with Trump and had been placed under the Baker Act about week before his arrest.

This act allows for a person to be involuntarily held and to receive mental health treatment when they are considered a threat to themselves or others.

He was later released and given a bond which prevented him from going within 500 feet of Trump or Mar-a-Lago.

But just eight days later he tried his luck again, attempting to pass through the Mar-a-Lago checkpoint as a passenger in a rideshare. 

This time around, his bond was at $100,000, and records show he posted it about two weeks after he was taken into custody.
