Trump Campaign Stop Cancelled after Restaurant Owner Dies Suddenly Hours Beforehand

President Donald Trump's campaign was forced to make a last-minute change after the owner of a New York restaurant died suddenly just hours before he was supposed to arrive.

Trump and his campaign had originally planned on visiting a famed deli in the Williamsburg neighborhood of Brooklyn, NYC.

However, the campaign had to abruptly cancel that stop after the deli's owner unexpectedly passed away.

According to WPIX-TV , Trump and his team were originally slated to appear at the popular local deli, Gottlieb's, on Thursday.

The stop was planned as part of the Trump campaign's swoop through New York.

Trump's rally in Nassau County on Wednesday made headlines over conflicting reports about a "suspicious occurrence" that took place before the event.

Local outlet Williamsburg 365 identified the deli owner as R' Shulem Yosef Gottlieb.

He reportedly died of a heart attack Thursday.

The local outlet described Gottlieb as "a respected figure in the community."

His passing had left not just his family in shock but the "Williamsburg community in mourning."

He was 75 years old, according to WINS-AM .

WINS also reports that Trump was at a "cryptocurrency-themed bar" in New York prior to the Nassau rally.

As Slay News reported , Trump bought burgers for everyone in the bar and paid the tab with Bitcoin.

This swing through the Empire State comes on the heels of Trump's second assassination attempt in nearly as many months.

On Sunday, the former president was golfing at his own course in Florida, when the Secret Service noticed a rifle sticking out of some shrubbery.

The gunman was spotted by an agent who was scouting a few holes ahead of the 45th president.

After security spooked off the would-be assassin, local authorities eventually apprehended Ryan Wesley Routh.

A scant 64 days before that harrowing event, Trump was at a rally in Butler, Pennsylvania.

That July 13 rally saw an assailant identified as Thomas Matthew Crooks fire several rounds at Trump while he was speaking.

Crooks was apparently able to secure a sloped roof with a clear line of sight to the presidential candidate at the fairgrounds.

Trump was hit in his ear, but ultimately survived.

Other rallygoers were also shot during the attack.

Among them was hero firefighter Corey Comperatore .

Comperatore died from his injuries after shielding his family from the gunman's bullets.

Trump is currently locked in a neck-and-neck race against the Democrat presidential nominee Kamala Harris, according to pre-election polling.

Real Clear Politics averages give Harris a slim 1.9 point lead over Trump.

However, the lead doesn't mean much when it comes to electoral college votes.
