Shooter and Victim From Trump Rally Assassination Attempt Identified
- On July 13, 2024, President Donald Trump was shot at a campaign rally in Butler, Pennsylvania, when Thomas Matthew Crooks fired from a rooftop about 100 yards away.
- The assassination attempt occurred during Trump’s appearance on stage as then-presumptive Republican nominee and led to Secret Service rushing him to a hospital.
- While hospitalized, Trump demanded a CT scan despite medical staff bafflement, repeatedly requesting to see the scan 'film' because he felt it was like an IQ test.
- He received unexpected calls from unusual sources including Mark Zuckerberg and Jeff Bezos, who praised his courage, and Elon Musk officially endorsed him that day.
- The events marked a turning point in Trump’s campaign, with widespread support leading to his release and flight to Bedminster, New Jersey, where Melania awaited him.
