Former President Donald Trump survived a second apparent assassination attempt in two months after the U.S. Secret Service fired on an armed individual, Ryan Wesley Routh, near Trump’s Florida golf course on Sunday.

Officials recovered a rifle with a scope and other items near the golf course’s outer fence after Routh fled upon being discovered. He was arrested later in the day by local law enforcement.
