US authorities said that the man who attempted to kill former President Donald Trump acted alone and there is no sign of foreign involvement.
But FBI officials stressed at a news briefing on Wednesday that a motive for the assassination attempt remains unknown, and they said that Thomas Crooks – the 20-year-old assailant – had a “mixture of ideologies”.
Last week, Trump held an outdoor rally in North Carolina – his first since the assassination attempt. He appeared behind a podium surrounded by bulletproof glass.
