FORT PIERCE, Fla. — The man who was charged with attempting to assassinate Donald Trump at a Florida golf course last year tried to stab himself in the neck with a pen shortly after being found guilty of all counts on Tuesday. Officers quickly swarmed him and dragged him out of the courtroom. The jury of five men and seven women found Ryan Routh guilty on all counts that he was facing after about two hours of deliberation. The jurors were on their way out of the courtroom after the verdict was announced when Routh grabbed a pen off a desk and tried to stab himself in the neck. The person could not publicly disclose specific details of the incident and spoke on the condition of anonymity.
