At Trump International Golf Club in West Palm Beach, former President Trump narrowly escaped an assassination attempt. Secret Service agents spotted Ryan Wesley Routh with a rifle and engaged him. Routh fled but was quickly apprehended after a witness photographed his getaway car. The FBI is investigating Routh’s international connections and political motives, given his outspoken views and recent travels to Ukraine. Trump, who was golfing at the time, was unharmed. The incident, the second such attempt in two months, has heightened concerns about political violence and security. Trump’s campaign confirmed his safety, while authorities continue their investigation.
