Romanian Media Try to Hunt Down Trump Son

Romanian media outlets are desperately chasing one of US President Trump's sons, who has reportedly been spotted on a private hunting trip in the countryside.

"I know it's there because some sheikhs came last year and hunted stags; it's all in the country, it's a hunting fund of over a hundred hectares. The animals are kept in a fold and they're released for the hunt," the mayor explained.

Hunting authority representatives in Giurgiu County could not confirm the information but said none of the Trumps could be out hunting on a public domain because they did not apply for a permit. The region is also host to 11 private hunting funds.

Residents in Singureni told the press they hadn't seen anything, while the US Embassy in Romania said it cannot comment on private visits.

However, Barron is only 11 years old and ProTV insisted that it was Donald Trump Jr., 39, the President's eldest son, who had arrived on Monday in Bucharest on a private plane before heading straight to Giurgiu County...
