 Trump rally shooter Thomas Crooks: Neighbors, classmates, employer speakA 20-year-old man from Pennsylvania fired multiple shots at former President Donald Trump at a rally on Saturday evening. A bullet grazed the presumptive Republican presidential nominee's upper right ear , leaving him bloodied but not seriously injured. One rally attendee was killed in the gunfire and two others were "critically injured," authorities later said. Here's what we know: Who is the shooter at the rally?The FBI identified Thomas Matthew Crooks of Bethel Park, Pennsylvania, as the person behind the assassination attempt. Agency officials released little additional information, saying its investigation remains active and ongoing. They did not indicate what Crooks' motive might have been. Crooks worked at a nearby nursing home. An administrator there told USA TODAY that the company was shocked to learn of the shooting and that Crooks had passed a background check for his job. What did Thomas Crooks do at the crime scene?During the shooting Saturday, Trump's right ear was injured, seconds before he was whisked off stage by Secret Service personnel. One man attending the rally was killed and two others were injured; Crooks was then killed by Secret Service agents , authorities said. FBI special agent Kevin Rojek said on a call with media Sunday afternoon that authorities found "a suspicious device" when they searched the shooter's vehicle. Bomb technicians inspected the device and rendered it safe. "I'm not in a position to provide any expertise on the specific components of any potential bombs or suspicious packages," Rojek added. Rojek said law enforcement is sending the rifle and Crooks' cell phone, along with other evidence, to the FBI lab in Quantico, Virginia "for processing and exploitation." "We're in the process of searching his phone," Rojek said. Maps and graphics: What happened in the Trump assassination attempt What is Crooks' background?Crooks is registered to vote as a Republican in Allegheny County, Pennsylvania, according to county voter records. His voter registration status has been active since 2021. Federal Election Commission records show that in January 2021, Crooks made a $15 donation to the Progressive Turnout Project, a group working to increase voter turnout for Democrats. Born Sept. 20, 2003, Crooks does not have a criminal record in Pennsylvania, nor has he been sued there, according to state court records. There is no record of him in federal court databases, either. Where did Thomas Crooks work?Crooks worked as a dietary aid, a job that generally involves food preparation, at Bethel Park Skilled Nursing and Rehabilitation, less than a mile from his home. In a statement provided to USA TODAY on Sunday, Marcie Grimm, the facility's administrator, said she was "shocked and saddened to learn of his involvement." "Thomas Matthew Crooks performed his job without concern and his background check was clean," Grimm said. "We are fully cooperating with law enforcement officials at this time. Due to the ongoing investigation, we cannot comment further on any specifics. Our thoughts and prayers go out to Former President Trump and the victims impacted by this terrible tragedy. We condemn all acts of violence." The facility is owned by Kennett Square, Pennsylvania-based Genesis Healthcare. A job posting from the company for a dietary aid in the Pittsburgh area puts the pay at $16 an hour. Thomas Crooks from Bethel Park, PennsylvaniaCrooks' home address is listed in Bethel Park, a suburb in the Pittsburgh metropolitan area, voter records show. That three-bedroom brick house has been owned since 1998 by Matthew and Mary Crooks, who appear to be his parents. Telephone calls to the couple were not returned overnight. Near the Crooks home, Dean Sierka, 52, said he had known Crooks and his parents for years, as neighbors separated by only a few houses. Sierka’s daughter attended school with Crooks from elementary school through Bethel Park High School, and said she remembers him as quiet and shy. Dean and his daughter said they would see Crooks at least once a week, often when Crooks was walking to work. “You wouldn’t have expected this,” Dean Sierka said. “The parents and the family are all really nice people.”  At Bethel Park High SchoolThomas Crooks graduated two years ago from Bethel Park High School, the Bethel Park School District confirmed. He was included in a 2022 local news article about recipients of a National Math & Science Initiative Star Award at the public high school, which enrolls about 1,300 students. Jason Kohler attended Bethel Park High School with Crooks and said he remembers the 20-year-old sat alone at lunch and was “bullied almost every day.” Kids picked on Crooks for wearing camouflage to class and his quiet demeanor, Kohler, 21, said. Since hearing Crooks has been named as the shooter, Kohler has been speaking with classmates who knew him, most of whom are stunned by the news.“It’s really hard to comprehend,” he said. Sean Eckert said he went to school with Crooks from 5th through 12th grade. He said Crooks always went by “Tom.“ They shared classes together in elementary and middle school. Eckert said Crooks, though "fairly smart," was quiet and rarely spoke up. Eckert said Crooks did not seem to have many friends. He didn't recall Crooks being playing any sports, being involved in any clubs or student groups or going to popular campus events. He often wore hunting clothes, so Eckert assumed he hunted. No one in Eckert's group text from high school seemed to know Crooks very well, he said. They were shocked that someone from their town had done this. They were even more surprised that it was Tom Crooks. Nursing aide turned sniper: Thomas Crooks' mysterious plot to kill Trump The gaming-oriented online site Discord said Sunday that it had found an account that appeared to be linked to the shooting suspect. The site removed the account, which “was rarely utilized, has not been used in months, and we have found no evidence that it was used to plan this incident, promote violence, or discuss his political views,“ according to a statement from a Discord spokesperson, adding that the company will coordinate closely with law enforcement. Crooks was a member of the Clairton Sportsmen’s Club, a shooting club about 8 miles from his home. It is a sprawling complex of 180 acres with rifle, pistol and archery ranges, an area for dog training and a clubhouse, according to the club website.An attorney for the club, Robert Bootay III, confirmed Crooks' membership in an email to USA TODAY, but would not offer additional details. Where is Bethel Park, Pennsylvania?Bethel Park is a suburb of Pittsburgh and home to more than 32,000 people – about one thousand fewer than four years ago, according to the latest Census estimates. The majority-white, mostly college-educated community has a median household income of $102,177. Described as a charming retreat from the hustle and bustle of the big city to its north, Bethel Park boasts tree-line streets, friendly neighborhoods and a low crime rate. Bethel Park is about 42 miles south of Butler, where the Trump rally was held. The leafy suburban street was alive with law enforcement overnight amid a multi-agency response to the shooting. A member of the Allegheny County bomb squad told reporters his team was headed into the house around midnight, but did not say why. For hours afterward, the scene remained quiet, with deer passing under the police tape and an occasional neighbor stepping out of their house to see what was happening. John Wolf, a local construction superintendent who lives down the road, said he’d talked with several worried neighbors. “People are scared,” Wolf said. How did Crooks shoot at Trump?Crooks had been positioned on a rooftop more than 100 yards from the rally site, Secret Service spokesperson Anthony Guglielmi said. Law enforcement recovered an AR-style rifle from the scene.  Joseph Price, special agent in charge of the ATF in Pittsburgh, said the weapon used by the shooter was a rifle.“It was nothing special,” he said in an interview in the parking lot of the Butler Township Municipal Building. Law enforcement is following up on a “number of suspicious occurrences,” said Lt. Col. George Bivens of the Pennsylvania State Police, including accounts from witnesses who said they tried to flag police about the activity of a person outside the rally moments before the shooting. The FBI said in a news release that the situation “remains an active and ongoing investigation, and anyone with information that may assist with the investigation is encouraged to submit photos or videos online at FBI.gov/butler or call 1-800-CALL-FBI.” Contributing: Stephanie Warsmith, Tim Evans, Aysha Bagchi, Jessica Guynn, Bryce Buyakie Politics latest: New poll makes grim reading for Farage - as PM tells COBRA meeting to 'maintain high alert'Sir Keir Starmer stressed the need to "maintain high alert" for more disorder as he chaired another emergency COBRA meeting. Meanwhile, new polling suggests support for Nigel Farage has plummeted since the unrest began last week. Thursday 8 August 2024 20:55, UK
Our political correspondent Darren McCaffrey has spotted some interesting polling about Nigel Farage. According to YouGov, the Reform leader's favourability ratings have fallen since the start of the riots in the UK. He is viewed unfavourably by every voter group in the UK except Reform backers. This includes Leave voters - his score with them going from +7 to -4. The proportion of 2024 Tory voters that have a negative view of him has risen from 52% to 61% - and 47% of the public believe he holds some responsibility for the rioting. Farage under fire from multiple sides Darren said: "I think he's trying to strike this balance between trying to lean into some of the causes potentially behind at least the protests, if not the violence, but at the same time trying to condemn them. "The question is, can he have his cake and eat it? Can he effectively walk that fine balance?" Mr Farage questioned the initial police response to the stabbing in Southport, accusing them of withholding information. The Reform leader has since condemned the violence on the streets - but made allegations of " two-tier policing ", claims which have been denied and criticised by the prime minister and Met Police chief. Mel Stride, the Tory leadership hopeful, was heavily critical of Mr Farage this morning when speaking to Sky News - and it could be that more Tories come out to attack him. With yet another COBRA meeting in the bag for the prime minister, the Politics Hub is signing off for the evening. For continued coverage of the response to the riots, including the latest arrests and court hearings, check out our dedicated blog below: As things stand, the Politics Hub won't be running tomorrow, so any political news, reaction, and analysis relating to the unrest will be in the above blog - do follow along for the latest updates. Thanks for joining us today, and have a good evening. Sir Keir Starmer has told his ministers and police chiefs they need to "maintain high alert" despite last night's anticipated wave of far-right unrest failing to materialise. Sky News understands that was the PM's main message from tonight's COBRA meeting - his third of the week. Sir Keir thanked the police and wider criminal justice system, saying the high levels of policing in key areas last night helped deter rioters - as did the swift sentencing of those convicted so far. The prime minister has condemned a "deeply concerning" rise in antisemitic incidents in the UK this year. Charity CST, which is dedicated to protecting Jewish communities, reported almost 2,000 cases in the first half of 2024 - a record high. There were at least 200 every month - something which had only happened five times prior to October 2023. That marks the point that Hamas launched its brutal attack on Israel, which was followed by the now 10-month bombardment of Gaza. Sir Keir Starmer thanked the CST for its work and said: "Jewish people, and all those from faith communities, deserve to feel safe on our streets. "We will work together to eradicate discrimination of any kind." While last night didn't see the unrest many had feared, tonight's COBRA meeting comes ahead of what ministers fear could be days of further protests and disorder. Sir Keir Starmer has vowed he will not "let up" so far as responding to threats from those bent on violence, and has held talks with police chiefs again this evening to discuss what could happen. Our crime correspondent Martin Brunt has reported there are fears the new football season kicking off this weekend could spell trouble. It comes after policing minister Dame Diana Johnson told Sky News earlier that intelligence points to more potential protests. Read more from our political reporter Alix Culbertson 👇 We've been reporting in the Politics Hub today on the arrest of a Labour councillor over comments he made at one of the counter-protests that took place around the country last night. First came footage from the event, which appeared to show a man calling for "fascist" rioters to have their throats "cut". Nigel Farage was among those who shared it, and called on police to arrest the man responsible. He was named online as Dartford Labour councillor Ricky Jones, and the party moved quickly to suspend him. We then heard from the Met Police, who said they were urgently investigating the video - and later came an arrest on suspicion of encouraging murder. For the full story and where we've got to as of tonight, our political reporter Faye Brown has you covered 👇 Sir Keir Starmer was in the West Midlands earlier before returning to London for tonight's COBRA meeting. The PM visited a mosque in Solihull, and has just put out a post on X thanking local leaders he met there - and the police - for "keeping our communities safe". Our team have spotted cabinet ministers leaving the COBRA meeting in the last few minutes, so hopefully we'll get an update on what was discussed from Downing Street before too long. We'll bring it to you if and when we do. By Faye Brown , political reporter Metropolitan Police chief Sir Mark Rowley has knocked back claims of "two-tier policing" as "complete nonsense". He said such claims - pedalled online by Nigel Farage and Elon Musk - put officers dealing with the ongoing riots at risk. The phrase is used to describe the impression that some protests and demonstrations are dealt with more harshly than others. What are the origins of 'two-tier' policing? The term has been used to suggest police are more heavy-handed with people on the right of the political spectrum than the left. Even before the current rioting in the UK, the idea was propagated by the likes of English Defence League founder Tommy Robinson, actor-turned political activist Laurence Fox, and former ex-minister Robert Jenrick. Reform UK leader Nigel Farage summed up the sentiment when he claimed that "ever since the soft policing of the Black Lives Matter protests, the impression of two-tier policing has become widespread". 'Difference between riot and protest' However, critics of those who have used the term say there is a clear difference between legal protests and the riots, which has seen mosques and hotels housing asylum seekers attacked, police officers hospitalised, and shops smashed and looted. One of the strongest rebukes came from Dame Priti Patel, who was home secretary during the Black Lives Matter demonstrations in 2020. She told Times Radio: "What we saw during the pandemic, we saw protest. We believe in free speech. We saw protests being policed. "What we're seeing right now is thuggery and disorder and criminality. There is a complete distinction between the two." What is the law on protests in the UK? Protest is legal in the UK and the right to freedom of expression is also protected under the European Convention of Human Rights. However, this only applies to peaceful protest and does not extend to any violence inflicted or damage caused during a protest. As pointed out by Chris Hobbs, a former Special Branch officer writing for the Police Oracle website , arrests have been made at pro-Palestinian protests when there has been suspected criminal offences, as has been the case during climate protests and BLM demonstrations. Prime Minister Sir Keir Starmer is banking on the rapid sentencing of convicted rioters putting people off committing more disorder. There have been more arrests today - not just over the violence we've seen over the past week, but also inaccurate information about the Southport attack shared online. False claims about the suspect helped ignite the riots. People have been sentenced today, too - some to several years in jail. For the latest on the response of the police and the courts, head to our dedicated live blog: The unrest of the past week has seen members of the far right target Muslim communities and mosques. It's reignited calls for the government to adopt an official definition of Islamophobia, with the hope it could help educate sections of the public and clamp down on violence and abuse. Rishi Sunak's government refused to adopt one, suggesting it could negatively impact freedom of speech, and instead referred to cases of "anti-Muslim hatred". And it appears the new government won't be quick to adopt one either. Asked directly on Sky News if it would consider one, communities minister Alex Norris danced around the question. 'Still people out there who want to cause disorder' "Our focus is on the next few days," he said, adding there'll be "plenty of other things we can look at" when the risk of more unrest has passed. Mr Norris said while there are "still people out there who want to cause violent disorder", the government's focus is on ensuring police "have the powers they need" and that "swift justice" can be delivered. We've spotted cabinet ministers and police chiefs arriving for tonight's COBRA meeting in Whitehall. Met boss Sir Mark Rowley and Justice Secretary Shabana Mahmood are among those we've seen. The meeting, chaired by Prime Minister Sir Keir Starmer, will discuss what happened last night and what may still be to come - the government has suggested more protests could be in the offing this week. We'll bring you updates from the meeting whenever we can.
