MIAMI (WSVN) - The man accused of attempting to assassinate former President Donald Trump has been moved to a federal prison in Miami.
Ryan Routh was transferred from the Palm Beach County Jail to the Federal Detention Center in downtown Miami.
The 58-year-old is facing a federal firearms charge after, officials said, he spent 12 hours hiding in the bushes outside Trump’s West Palm Beach golf course on Sunday with a gun.
Officials said Routh did not fire any shots at the former president but took off when a Secret Service agent spotted him and shot in his direction.
Routh was arrested in neighboring Martin County.
