Investigators have no reason to believe the shooter was part of a larger conspiracy involving other people. They are currently investigating the motive for the shooting.

The FBI is investigating the wounding of US presidential candidate Donald Trump as an attempted assassination and a possible domestic terrorist attack, The New York Times reports, citing the Federal Bureau of Investigation.

It was learned that the shooter’s phone, rifle and possible explosives were sent to the bureau’s laboratory in Quantico, Virginia. The FBI described the explosive device as “prime.”

The department said it found no evidence the shooter had mental health problems. The bureau’s top priority is determining the shooter’s motive, said Robert Wells, assistant director of the counterterrorism division.

The FBI also confirmed that the father bought the rifle, but it is unclear if he gave the weapon to his son or if he took it without permission. The family is currently cooperating with the investigation. Law enforcement officials said the bureau has not yet determined the ideology espoused by shooter Thomas Matthew Crooks.

FBI officials also spoke to reporters by phone and said they had no reason to believe the shooter was part of a larger conspiracy involving other people.

“At this time, the information we have indicates that the shooter acted alone and that there is no threat to public safety at this time,” said Kevin Royke, the agent in charge of the attempted homicide investigation. .

As reported, during a campaign rally for Donald Trump in Butler, Pennsylvania, an attempt was made on his life. Trump later said he was shot in the upper right ear and lost a lot of blood. According to media reports, the alleged attacker has been identified as 20-year-old Thomas Matthew Crooks of Bethel Park, Pennsylvania. Police say he was shot.

Let’s remember that US President Joe Biden released a new statement about the assassination attempt on Trump and said he gave some instructions. Specifically, Trump will receive enhanced security, the Secret Service will be tasked with reviewing all security measures at the Republican convention, and the Department of Homeland Security will conduct an independent review of the event.
