A report reveals that a Secret Service agent fired six shots from close distance and MISSED when trying to take down Ryan Routh, a man suspected of trying to assassinate former President Donald Trump. This report was released by the Trump Assassination Task Force.
The report showed gaps in the security on the day this took place, when Donald Trump was expected to be golfing. Routh had allegedly been camping out on the ground for possibly 12 hours. Since Routh was not shot, they apprehended him and he ended up arrested. It’s expected that he may attempt an insanity defense.
The report goes a bit deeper into details and exposes more of the agents who seem to be unprepared. Further reported, on The Political Insider (hey Rusty, how are ya):
“The agent first noticed the suspect, later identified as Ryan Wesley Routh, and then noticed the barrel of Routh’s gun sticking through the fence line,” the report reads. “The special agent, who may have been as close as five feet away from Routh, immediately responded by firing shots toward the suspect.”
“It is believed six shots in total were fired; however, final ballistics are pending an ongoing FBI investigation.”
