00:00It was July 13th, 2024 in Butler, Pennsylvania, when former U.S. President Donald Trump was
00:06attacked while addressing a gathering.
00:09During this, the sound of three bullets was heard.
00:12Donald Trump was shot but his life was saved.
00:16This whole incident has raised many questions, some of which have been answered, but many
00:20secrets are still hidden.
00:24Once again welcome to World Stories Videos.
00:28U.S. presidential elections are expected in November 2024 and during its campaign, Donald
00:33Trump demonstrated public power in the city of Butler, Pennsylvania.
00:38On the evening of July 13th, thousands of people had gathered near the Butler Farm show
00:42lake on Evans City Road.
00:45There was a stage at the same place on which Trump was shot.
00:49Right behind the stage are three buildings, out of which Secret Service snipers were already
00:54present on two buildings when Donald Trump was shot.
00:57Trump started his speech on the stage, till then everything was normal but before the
01:01shooting some people in the crowd had seen a person with a gun on the roof of the building
01:06on the right side of the stage.
01:08At first everyone thought that maybe this is some officer of the security force but
01:12when his dressing was revealed, it was confirmed that the person on the roof was not from the
01:17security force, then some people started shouting.
01:20This news was probably radioed by the Secret Service agents to their colleagues and the
01:24Secret Service snipers behind Trump turned their direction towards the shooter just before
01:29his intention could be known.
01:31He fired three bullets simultaneously, the sound of which can be heard in the video as
01:36well.
01:37Take a look at what happened.
01:42Remember that there was a distance of only 410 feet between the shooter and Trump's stage.
01:48At the right moment, Trump naturally moved his head a little and the bullet passed by
01:52touching his ear, otherwise the shooter's aim was so accurate that it was not possible
01:56for Trump to survive.
01:59Immediately after the firing, Donald Trump himself sat down on the dais and Secret Service
02:04agents surrounded him from all sides.
02:08After about 30 seconds, he was taken down from the stage and immediately sent to the
02:12hospital in a bulletproof car.
02:15When Trump was sitting down, the snipers killed the shooter.
02:19This entire process took so little time that he did not even get time to come down from
02:23the roof.
02:25At one point it was said that the shooter had fired a total of eight bullets, due to
02:29which a person present in Hazza died, while two were injured.
02:33The shooter was identified as Matthew Crooks, from whom an AR-15 rifle was recovered.
02:39The shooter lived in Bethel Park, 70 kilometers from the place where Trump was attacked.
02:44He graduated from Bethel Park High School in 2022 and currently works in the kitchen
02:49of a nursing home.
02:51His colleagues said that they did not notice any unusual behavior in Thomas Matthews, but
02:56he had recently taken membership in a local shooting club.
02:59Clayton Sportsman Club has various ranges with a maximum target distance of 560 feet.
03:06A day before attacking Trump, Thomas bought 50 rounds of ammunition and a ladder from
03:11a local store.
03:12The gun he used to attack was actually bought by his father.
03:16On the day of the shooting, he took leave from his nursing home kitchen and told his
03:20colleagues that he would be back by tomorrow.
03:23On the same morning, Thomas' father filed a police complaint that his son was missing.
03:29After the attack on Donald Trump, many questions have arisen as to why 20-year-old Thomas did
03:33this and on whose orders he did it or when he was present on the roof with a gun openly
03:38in broad daylight.
03:40Why did the Secret Service agents not notice him and how did he manage to enter the gathering
03:44with a weapon amidst so many people, but the FBI still believes that this was Thomas'
03:49personal decision?
03:51The FBI has also found bomb-making material from his car and house.
03:56Before the shooting, he had also searched for photos.
04:00Not only Trump, but in his search history, he had also searched for President Joe Biden,
04:05Attorney General Merrick Garland, FBI Director Christopher and Princess of Wales Catherine
04:10and recently he also obtained information about major depressive disorder.
04:15Along with all these things, the FBI also found a shocking photo in Thomas' mobile
04:20phone.
04:22You may remember that on November 30, 2021, a shooting took place inside Oxford High School
04:27in Michigan which was condemned by the whole world.
04:31A photo of then-Kamali, who attacked inside Oxford High School, was also found from Thomas'
04:36mobile phone.
04:38Does he have any connection with the Oxford School shooting?
04:41Nothing can be said right now whether he was a member of a gang or was a part of a larger
04:46gang, but since September 2021, when he turned 18, Thomas was a voter of the Republican Party,
04:52the same party on whose ticket Donald Trump won the election last time and became president
04:57and is a presidential candidate this time too.
05:00Investigation is going on on Donald Trump's assassination attempt and it is possible that
05:05more details will be published with time.
