WASHINGTON D.C.: The gunman who tried to assassinate former President Donald Trump may have had a firearm with a collapsible stock, making it easier for him to carry and conceal the weapon, the director of the FBI testified Wednesday.
The gunman also had researched President John F. Kennedy’s assassination, FBI Director Christopher Wray said.
On July 5, Thomas Crooks, 20, traveled to the site of Trump's July 13 presidential campaign rally in Butler, Pennsylvania, for the first time, Wray told a House Judiciary Committee hearing.
The next day, Crooks searched “how far away was Oswald from Kennedy," referring to the 1963 assassination, and registered for the rally, Wray said.
