The parents of the man who attempted to assassinate former President Donald Trump were allegedly looking for the 20-year-old and called police in the hours leading up to the shooting. According to a report by Fox News, Thomas Matthew Crooks’ parents told law enforcement their son was missing and they were “worried.”

Meanwhile, NBC News reported senior law enforcement officials said Crooks’ father called police after the attempted assassination to tell police that his son and AR rifle were missing.

It is unclear whether Crooks’ father called police before or after the shooting, or both times.
