Donald Trump ‘safe and well’ after apparent assassination attempt | BBC News


Ryan Wesley Routh, 58, of Hawaii has been named by US media as the suspected gunman accused of assassination plot against Donald Trump.

Trump has said he is “safe and well” after what the FBI has described as a “second apparent assassination attempt” at his Florida golf course.

Secret Service agents spotted the barrel of a rifle poking through bushes on Sunday afternoon, officials said.

The FBI said Trump was 300-500 yards (275 to 455m) away at the time.

A witness reported seeing the suspect emerging from some bushes and jumping into a black Nissan car after the agents had fired at him a number of times.

The incident comes almost exactly two months after a gunman attempted to assassinate Trump at a rally in Butler, Pennsylvania, striking his ear.
