00:00The suspect in an apparent assassination attempt against Donald Trump is a staunch supporter of
00:05Ukraine who was rejected by the country's armed forces and failed to make much of a
00:09contribution to the war effort. Ryan Wesley Ruth, 58, who appeared in court on Monday,
00:15is from North Carolina and spent most of his life there, but most recently lived in Hawaii.
00:22He voted for Trump in 2016 but later turned against him and made statements of support
00:27and contributions to other politicians. Here are some of the other things we know about him.
00:33What did Ruth do? He is suspected of going to the Trump International Golf Course in Florida
00:38on Sunday, armed with an SKS-style rifle. The FBI recovered the weapon and scope,
00:44two backpacks and a GoPro camera from an area heavy with bush cover.
00:49Law enforcement allege that Ruth fled the area when a Secret Service agent fired in his direction
00:54after spotting a rifle barrel poking out of the bushes.
