A 20-year-old man, Thomas Matthew Crooks, was identified as the suspected shooter who attempted to assassinate former President Donald Trump at a campaign rally in Butler, Pennsylvania. Secret Service agents fatally shot Crooks after he fired multiple shots from a rooftop. Trump was hit in the ear, and a bystander was killed. Two others were critically injured. Crooks was described by former schoolmates as quiet and socially reserved, but his political views and motivations remain unclear. The investigation is ongoing to determine the reasons behind the attack.
