News summary

The FBI is investigating an attempted assassination of former President Donald Trump after Ryan Wesley Routh, 58, was arrested near Trump's golf course in West Palm Beach, Florida. Routh was charged with federal gun crimes but did not fire his weapon or have a direct line of sight to Trump during the incident. A Secret Service agent spotted Routh with an AK-style rifle, opened fire, and Routh fled the scene without returning fire. Trump was unharmed and has since been provided with heightened security measures. President Biden expressed relief that Trump was safe and emphasized the need for more support for the Secret Service. The investigation is ongoing, with authorities interviewing witnesses and processing additional evidence from the scene.
