Shocking Second Assassination Attempt on Former President Trump

News Today: Second assassination attempt on Donald Trump disrupts Florida golf game.

A second assassination attempt on former President Donald Trump unfolded at his golf course in Florida. The FBI reported that an armed suspect with an AK-47 and scope was spotted near Trump’s location at the Trump International club in West Palm Beach. A US Secret Service agent opened fire, but the suspect fled, only to be apprehended later by deputies on Interstate 95. Identified as Ryan Wesley Routh, the suspect was detained after a witness provided photos of the escape vehicle.

Trump, who was playing at the time, was unharmed and immediately surrounded by security. The FBI revealed that this is the second attempt on Trump’s life within two months, following a previous attack at a campaign rally in Butler, Pennsylvania. Law enforcement discovered backpacks, a GoPro camera, and the rifle at the scene, speculating that the incident may have been intended for livestreaming.

President Joe Biden condemned the political violence in a statement, emphasizing the need for security. Local and federal investigations are ongoing, with Palm Beach prosecutors working on charges against the suspect.
