A shooter attempted to assassinate former President Donald Trump at a rally in the western Pennsylvania town of Butler on July 13.
A bullet grazed Trump’s ear, and three rally attendees were shot — Corey Comperatore, 50, died, and David Dutch, 57, and James Copenhaver, 74, were injured.
Secret Service agents killed the suspect at the scene, and the FBI later identified him as Thomas Matthew Crooks, a 20-year-old resident of Bethel Park, Pennsylvania.
Investigators said that it appears Crooks acted alone.
