Pennsylvania man killed at Trump rally, Corey Comperatore, shielded family when gunfire erupted

A spectator who was killed in the shooting at a rally for former President Donald Trump on Saturday has been identified as Corey Comperatore. He was shot while attempting to shield his family from the gunfire, Pennsylvania Gov. Josh Shapiro said at a news conference Sunday.

"Corey was the very best of us," Shapiro said. "Corey died a hero. Corey dove on his family to protect them last night. Corey was a 'girl dad.' Corey was a firefighter. Corey went to church every Sunday. Corey loved his community."

The shooting also injured Trump and critically injured two others who were rushed to the hospital.

Pennsylvania State Rep. Marci Mustello (R-Butler) released a statement on Sunday, as Comperatore was his constituent.
