On September 15, US media quoted law enforcement officials as saying that they had identified the suspect who shot Donald Trump, the Republican presidential candidate. The New York Times and Fox News said the suspect was named Ryan Wesley Routh, 58, living in Hawaii. However, these news agencies did not provide specific information. Speaking to the press, Palm Beach County Sheriff Ric Bradshaw said the suspect opened fire 365-457 meters away from Trump and fired at least four times at around 1:30 p.m. on September 15 (local time). After being discovered, the suspect left behind the rifle, two black bags and other items and fled in a black car. However, he was later arrested. Meanwhile, Mr. JD Vance, Mr. Donald Trump's running mate, said that he had spoken to the former US President and that Mr. Trump was healthy and in good spirits. This is the second shooting targeting Mr. Trump in just two months. In July, he was also shot while campaigning in Pennsylvania. This incident has raised concerns about the security of the US President or US presidential candidate.
