Gunman suspected of trying to kill Trump charged with attempted assassination

CGTN

The gunman accused of planning to kill Donald Trump at his Florida golf course was indicted Tuesday on three additional counts, including attempted assassination of a major presidential candidate, the U.S. Department of Justice announced. 

The indictment for Ryan Routh was issued by a grand jury in Miami, according to the Department of Justice, and court documents indicated that the case was assigned at random to Judge Aileen Cannon -- a Trump appointee who stopped criminal proceedings against the former president over his retention of top-secret documents at his private residence.
