Police say there is 'no credibility' to report of explosives near Trump's New York rally

The is "no credibility" to reports that explosives were found near the site of former President Donald Trump's Long Island rally, New York police told Raw Story on Wednesday.

The claim that of explosives found in a car parked near Trump's Uniondale venue — picked up by the Daily Mail Wednesday morning — appears originate with an X post from former investigative reporter James Lalino, who cited anonymous sources within the Nassau County Police Department.

"Sources in the Nassau County Police Department just told me that 'the perimeter was breached and a blue barrel was removed' from the area surrounding tonight's Trump rally site," Lalino wrote. "Source said 'During K9, doing their checks, they found an explosive device in one of the vehicles and that driver ended up running into the woods.'"

A source told Fox News correspondent Jen Johnson that there was no explosives or suspect on the run, just a K-9 training in a local park by a private security company.

Nassau police told Newsweek that there was suspicious activity reported nearby — but no explosive device was found.

"There was no validity of an explosive device being found," a public information officer reportedly said. We're unsure where this information originated, but we can confirm that no explosives were discovered."

Security is amping up in the Long Island town were Trump is slated to speak at a rally Wednesday night. He has faced two failed assassination attempts in roughly two months, the most recent last Sunday.
