After the assassination attempt at a weekend rally that targeted Donald Trump, new details are emerging about the alleged shooter, 20-year-old Thomas Matthew Crooks. NBC’s Tom Winter joins TODAY on the latest into the investigation.
The FBI continues to search for a motive after identifying the man who authorities said tried to assassinate former President Donald Trump at a Pennsylvania rally. Authorities identified the shooter as Thomas Matthew Crooks, 20, of Bethel Park, Pennsylvania. He was killed by at least one Secret Service sharpshooter after firing multiple shots at Trump at a campaign rally on July 13 in Butler, authorities said.
Crooks worked as a dietary aide at the Bethel Park Skilled Nursing and Rehabilitation Center. Officials at the nursing home told NBC News in a statement that a background check on Crooks was clean and there was no 'concern' about him on the job. Crooks was a registered Republican, but it's not clear the last time he voted.
