The FBI confirmed early Sunday the identity of the gunman who shot former President Donald Trump as Thomas Matthew Crooks, 20, of Bethel Park, Pennsylvania.
Police snipers return fire after shots were fired while Republican presidential candidate former President Donald Trump was speaking at a campaign event in Butler, Pa., on Saturday, July 13, 2024.
The political leanings of Crooks were not immediately clear. Records show Crooks was registered as a Republican voter in Pennsylvania, but federal campaign finance reports also show he gave $15 to a progressive political action committee on Jan. 20, 2021, the day President Biden was sworn in to office.
Mr. Trump was struck on the right ear but survived and is reported by aides to be “fine.” He was walking unaided when he arrived in New Jersey early Sunday.Meanwhile, Pennsylvania State Police said the Secret Service was responsible for surveying the venue where the rally was held. Asked whether there was anything about the venue that made it particularly difficult to secure, State Police Lt. Col. George Bivens deferred to the Secret Service, which was not present at the news conference.
