WASHINGTON (Reuters) – The man charged with attempting to assassinate Republican presidential candidate Donald Trump at his Florida golf course last month will stand trial in November, a U.S. judge said on Tuesday.

The order for a Nov. 18 trial start date from U.S. District Judge Aileen Cannon came the day after Ryan Routh, 58, pleaded not guilty to five federal charges, including attempted assassination of a major presidential candidate.

Routh lurked with a rifle outside Trump’s golf course in West Palm Beach, Florida on Sept. 15 with the intent to kill Trump while he golfed, prosecutors allege.
