FBI Gains Access to Suspected Trump Shooter’s Phone

FBI agents have gained access to a phone belonging to Thomas Crooks, the man identified by law enforcement officials as shooting former President Donald Trump, the bureau said in a July 15 statement.

Specialists are continuing to analyze the phone and other electronic devices that belonged to Mr. Crooks, who was shot dead by law enforcement outside a Trump rally in Butler, Pennsylvania, on July 13 after he fired shots at the former president.

Agents completed a search of Mr. Crooks’ home and vehicle and carried out interviews with nearly 100 law enforcement officers, rally attendees, and other witnesses, the FBI said. The bureau is also reviewing tips that have come in since the shooting, including photographs and videos from the scene.

Video footage of the Crooks family home showed men in uniforms speaking with a man who had answered the door.

Mr. Crooks was 20. He graduated from Bethel Park High School and worked locally at a nursing home as a dietary aide. He was a registered Republican who donated to a liberal group in January 2021.
