Former President Donald Trump survived an assassination attempt just days before the Republican presidential nomination, sparking concerns about political violence and security lapses.
During a campaign speech in Butler, Pennsylvania, Trump was injured by gunfire, sustaining a minor wound on his right ear. The suspect, identified as 20-year-old Thomas Matthew Crooks, was fatally shot by Secret Service agents.
This incident has intensified the already heated U.S. political climate and raised questions about security measures. The FBI is investigating the attack, which comes amid a tight election race between Trump and President Joe Biden.
