FBI officials have stated that their investigation into the shooting at former President Donald Trump's rally is still in its early stages. The shooter, 20-year-old Thomas Matthew Crooks, had no prior interactions with the FBI and was not on their radar. Investigators are currently working to determine Crooks' motives for the shooting.
FBI Deputy Director Paul Abbate mentioned that law enforcement officers are delving into Crooks' background, daily activities, and social media presence. However, they have not found any threatening information so far. Abbate also mentioned that they have some insights into Crooks' recent communications through text and phone call details, but nothing has indicated a motive or involvement of others in the shooting.
