In a harrowing day for America, just four months before the nation heads to the polls, the former president survived a surreal assassination attempt when shots were fired towards the stage mere minutes into his rally speech in Butler, Pennsylvania.

Trump’s ear was grazed by a bullet, but he escaped largely unscathed. Unfortunately, a 50-year-old rallygoer was killed, and two other spectators were critically injured in the attack.

With the nation reeling and questions mounting about the Secret Service's actions at the event, new details are beginning to emerge about the gunman and his potential motive.

Thomas Matthew Crooks, a 20-year-old Pennsylvania native, had parked his vehicle close to the rally in Butler before climbing onto the roof of a nearby building with a vantage point of the stage, according to authorities.

Just after 6 p.m., about 15 minutes after Trump began his speech, the gunman opened fire. Shots rang out and screams filled the air as the former president ducked for cover behind the podium, and Secret Service agents leaped onto the stage to protect him.
