This is the second assassination attempt in over two months. The suspect who is already arrested is Ryan Wesley Routh; he had AK-47 rifle with a scope and 300-500 yards away from Trump. He was spotted pointing the rifle and shot at by one of the secret service agents; thus, making him escape from the scene, leaving behind the rifle in the bushes, two backpacks hung on a fence and a GoPro camera.
Fortunately, the suspect was seen by a witness escaping in a vehicle, who helped the police with information to his arrest after a lockdown in the area.
The former President issued an official statement saying that he is fine .
