Pictures were released overnight as officials gave new details around Thomas Matthew Crooks' internet searches in the days before the shooting.
The FBI has released new photos of the gun used to shoot Donald Trump during a July rally in Butler, Pennsylvania, as well as the backpack and explosives the shooter had in his car at the rally.
Kevin Rojek, the special agent in charge of the FBI's Pittsburgh Field Office, detailed how the shooter saw the Trump rally as a "target of opportunity." Officials have not yet identified a motive and said that Crooks expressed "no definitive ideology." On July 6, nearly a week before the rally, Crooks searched online "where will Trump speak from at Butler Farm Show" as well as "Butler Farm Show podium" and "Butler farm show photos," Rojek said.
