Former President Donald Trump is planning to return to Butler, Pennsylvania, where he almost escaped assassination during a rally in July.
According to people acquainted with the Trump campaign’s plans, the second event will be held in the first week of October, precisely on October 5, at the same location where the first incident happened.
Leslie Osche, head of the Butler County Commissioners, confirmed that Trump’s upcoming rally will take place at the Butler Farm Show fairground. This is the exact location where gunman Thomas Crooks shot Trump during an outdoor campaign event on July 13. The incident resulted in two significant injuries and the death of Pennsylvania firefighter Corey Comperatore.
Although Trump was unharmed, the shots fired by Crooks grazed his ear, making the incident a close call for the former president. Crooks, who was on a rooftop around 400 feet from Trump, fired eight rounds in less than six seconds before being fatally shot by a Secret Service sniper.
Following the assassination attempt, security at Trump’s rallies has been reinforced. Read Full Article HEre.
