Descrizione:

Former Republican president Donald Trump returned to his home in New Jersey after he was injured in an attempted assassination at a rally in the Butler Park Showgrounds in Butler, Pennsylvania, on Saturday.

“I was shot with a bullet that pierced the upper part of my right ear,” Trump wrote on social media after the shooting. He had been taken to a hospital for evaluation and then reportedly discharged at about 10.20pm local time.

The FBI identified 20-year-old Thomas Matthew Crooks of Bethel Park, Pennsylvania, as the “subject involved” in what it termed an attempted assassination. Crooks was a registered Republican, according to state voter records. Officials have not publicly disclosed a possible motive.

Secret Service agents fatally shot Crooks, who attacked from an elevated position outside the rally venue at a farm show in Butler, the agency said. One person who attended the rally was killed and two other spectators were critically injured, the Secret Service said.
