The US Secret Service has had "more than one" conversation with Donald Trump's campaign about his recent highly controversial comments on gun rights, CNN reported on Wednesday.

Trump has denied that any such conversation has taken place.

The Republican presidential nominee has been accused of inciting followers to shoot his Democrat rival Hillary Clinton in the comments at a North Carolina rally on Tuesday.
