Accused Trump gunman Ryan Wesley Routh hid in sniper’s nest for nearly 12 hours before he was spotted by Secret Service

Ryan Wesley Routh, the alleged would-be Trump assassin, set up a sniper’s nest near the former president’s golf course and hid there for nearly 12 hours before the apparent ambush attempt, federal prosecutors said Monday.

Routh’s cellphone pinged to the spot on the edge of Trump International West Palm Beach starting from 1:59 a.m. Sunday, the federal criminal complaint said.

His gun barrel was spotted by a Secret Service agent about 1:30 p.m. — while Trump was on the links 300 to 500 yards away.

In the sniper’s nest, agents found a digital camera, two bags and a loaded SKS-style rifle with its serial number scratched off and unreadable, according to the complaint.

SKS-style rifles are not manufactured in Florida and the weapon was either brought in from another state or country, the complaint reads.

Moments after the Secret Service agent fired at Routh, a witness saw the suspect speeding away from the golf course in a Nissan sport utility vehicle with stolen license plates.

Routh was later caught by authorities on I-95.

According to the complaint, Routh was convicted in 2002 in Greensboro, North Carolina, after he was found with a weapon of mass death and destruction.

He was later convicted in 2010 of multiple counts of possession of stolen goods, per the complaint.
