Recently unsealed court documents reveal that authorities recovered a loaded SKS-style 7.62x39 caliber rifle with a scope from the area where a fugitive, identified as Ryan Wesley Routh, fled after being spotted by a Secret Service agent on Sunday.
The recovery was made by Secret Service agents, who also found a digital camera and two bags, including a backpack, in the possession of Routh. A black-and-white photo of the recovered items was included in an affidavit submitted by Mark A. Thomas, an FBI special agent.
