Investigation Continues in Trump Assassination Attempt Case

 

After conducting over 100 interviews, searching the suspect’s home and vehicle, and gaining access to his cellphone, FBI investigators are still searching for the motive behind the 20-year-old Pennsylvania man’s attempt to assassinate former President Donald Trump. 

The Pennsylvania State Police clarified that they were not responsible for securing the area where the gunman opened fire from a rooftop during a campaign rally in Butler Township, Pennsylvania.
