Donald Trump-themed shooting targets being sold on eBay just days after an attempt on the ex-president’s life appear to have been removed following complaints.
The product came in a set of 12 and featured a cartoon-style drawing of the controversial politician.
Trump is dressed in a blue suit and red tie and is holding a gun.
The product was available to buy earlier in the week.
But, after approaches by SWNS to eBay and the manufacturer, it appears to have been taken down – and is no longer available to buy.
Secret Service agents thwarted an attempt to kill Trump – who is running for re-election – at a golf course in Florida on Sunday, September 15.
The incident comes just a month after Trump was shot in the ear by a would-be assassin while he was speaking at a campaign rally.

The targets were spotted by an eBay user from Coventry in the West Midlands.
He said: “It was stomach-churning when I saw it. I don’t agree with [Trump] or his policies.
Here’s what we know about the assassination attempt on Trump in Florida:
“But I did think, this is a real human. This is someone’s father and grandfather. I don’t think people should be pretending to shoot at real people.”
The 40-year-old, who has two children himself, reported the listing to eBay.

He said: “I reported it because I thought this is inciting of violence over politics.”
He says eBay initially dismissed the complaint and said it did not violate its policies.
And an eBay spokesperson did not comment when approached by SWNS. The manufacturer was also contacted.
But the product appears to no longer be available to buy, as of Friday morning (20/9).
