The FBI recently disclosed new information regarding the attempted assassination of former President Donald Trump during a rally in Pennsylvania. The assailant, Thomas Matthew Crooks, had meticulously researched various campaign events, including those involving both Trump and President Joe Biden. However, he ultimately fixated on the Pennsylvania rally, which was conveniently located just 40 minutes from his residence.
Special Agent Kevin Rojek of the FBI's Pittsburgh Field Office shared insights into Crooks' planning process. The agency released images of the firearm used in the attack, as well as photos of Crooks' backpack and the explosives found in his vehicle.
