Suspect in custody after second attempted assassination of Donald Trump (Page 3 ) | September 16, 2024

Authorities alerted the Martin County Sheriff’s Office, which detained the person. The witness was able to then identify the man.
David Aronberg, State Attorney for Palm Beach County, Florida, said the suspect said nothing as he was detained.
“He knew enough to stay silent,” he told CNN’s Anderson Cooper on Sunday evening.
“He did not apparently speak to officers, he was calm. So, it looked like a person who has done this before, not necessarily this crime, but someone who has had repeated interactions with law enforcement.”
The person in custody in connection with the apparent attempted assassination is Ryan Wesley Routh, according to three law enforcement sources.
The self-employed affordable housing builder in Hawaii went on social media to weigh in on politics and current events, at times criticising the former president, and expressed strong support for Ukraine.
The FBI’s investigation has gone global as officials work to flesh out his background, a law enforcement source told CNN.
Some of Routh’s suspected online activity also involved the use of platforms headquartered outside the United Stated, the source said, which will involve working with international partners to identify everything the FBI possibly can about the detained individual.
Officials said an AK-47-style rifle with a scope; two backpacks that were hung on the fence and had ceramic tile in them; and a GoPro camera were recovered at the scene.
