During the rally held by former President Donald Trump on Saturday, a shooting incident occurred involving an AR-style weapon, as confirmed by a source familiar with the investigation. The authorities utilized the gun to assist in identifying the shooter, who was found without any identification on his person, as reported by law enforcement sources.
The FBI has officially named the gunman as Thomas Matthew Crooks, a 20-year-old individual from Bethel Park, Pennsylvania. It was revealed that he discharged multiple rounds from a rooftop of a building located just outside the rally venue before being fatally shot by Secret Service agents.
