Former US President Donald Trump narrowly escaped an assassination attempt during a campaign rally in Butler, Pennsylvania.
The assailant has been reportedly identified as 20-year-old Thomas Matthew Crooks of Bethel Park, Pennsylvania.
Crooks is said to have fired multiple shots from an elevated position on a manufacturing plant roof, over 130 yards from the stage where Trump was addressing supporters. Crooks’ shots injured Trump, grazing his ear, and tragically claimed the life of an innocent bystander while critically wounding two others.
According to sources, the assailant was stationed on a roof of a manufacturing plant that was more than 130 yards away from the stage where Donald Trump was addressing the public at Butler Farm Show grounds.
“It’s too early to make that call. We have tentatively identified one shooter, but our investigation continues. We’re following numerous leads, and it will take some time before we can conclusively determine if there was only one gunman,” stated Pennsylvania State Police Lt. Col. George Bevins.
Trump campaign spokesperson Steven Cheung said, “President Trump thanks law enforcement and first responders for their quick action during this heinous act. He is fine and is being checked out at a local medical facility.
