Former President Trump agrees to an FBI interview regarding the July 13 attempted assassination at a Pennsylvania campaign rally.
Former President Trump has agreed to participate in a victim interview with the FBI, as part of their investigation into the attempted assassination on July 13 at a campaign rally in Pennsylvania. Trump was struck by a bullet or a fragment during the incident, and the FBI's standard protocol includes interviewing victims of federal crimes as part of their investigations. The suspected gunman, Thomas Matthew Crooks, had researched mass attacks and explosive devices prior to the shooting. Despite hundreds of interviews, the FBI has yet to uncover a motive for the attack, but has revealed new details about the 20-year-old gunman, who conducted internet searches about mass shootings, power plants, improvised explosive devices, and the attempted assassination of Slovakia's prime minister earlier this year.
