A security alert at US President Donald Trump’s Irish golf resort has been lifted after a suspicious package was deemed safe.

A cordon was put in place at Trump International Golf Links and Hotel in Doonbeg, Co Clare, over the incident.

An Garda Síochána and the Irish Defence Forces' Explosive Ordnance Disposal team responded to the incident.

A Garda spokeswoman said: “The package was subsequently deemed safe and the cordon has been lifted.

“Investigations are ongoing.”

Mr Trump’s son Eric recently visited the resort.

The 2026 Amgen Irish Open is to be played at the resort between September 10th and 13th as well.
