The unsealed complaint of Ryan Routh, the man accused of trying to assassinate former President Donald Trump, shows his phone was in the vicinity of the golf course for almost 12 hours:
During their investigation, law enforcement also discovered a publicly viewable Facebook post from on or about July 10, 2024, in which ROUTH directed his followers to contact him on an instant messaging application (WhatsApp) at the following number: 1 ***-***- 8342. Database checks indicate that a mobile phone assigned call number 1-***-***-8342 is serviced by T-Mobile US, Inc. (“T Mobile”) and that ROUTH is the subscriber. Agents requested T-Mobile, on an emergency basis, to provide law enforcement with information pertaining to ROUTH’s mobile phone usage. Those records indicated that ROUTH’s mobile phone was located in the vicinity of the area along the tree line described above from approximately 1:59 AM until approximately 1:31 PM, on September 15, 2024.
According to the complaint, at 1:31 p.m. Sunday, a Secret Service agent protecting Trump and walking the perimeter of his golf course in West Palm Beach, Fla., “saw what appeared to be a rifle poking out of the tree line.” The agent then fired in that direction.A man later identified by authorities as Routh was spotted by a witness who saw him flee in a Nissan that was stopped less than 45 minutes later traveling north on Interstate 95.When Routh was stopped by the Martin County Sheriff’s Office, he “was asked if he knew why he was being stopped; he responded in the affirmative,” FBI Special Agent Mark A. Thomas wrote in an affidavit supporting the complaint.
