Shocking new information has come to light regarding the attempted assassination of former President Donald Trump at a rally in Butler, Pennsylvania.
Thomas Matthew Crooks, the 20-year-old gunman responsible for the attack, was reportedly on law enforcement’s radar hours before he opened fire.
The gunman’s father reportedly told CNN he believed his son had gone to practice at a local shooting range, expecting him to return by 1 pm.
Crooks had also informed his boss that he needed the day off on Saturday, telling colleagues he would see them on Sunday.
Fox News reported that Crooks’ parents had contacted local law enforcement in Bethel Park, Pennsylvania, expressing concern about their son’s whereabouts on the day of the rally.
Crooks was spotted at the rally’s security screening area approximately three hours before the shooting, Daily Mail reported.
