More disturbing footage and accounts continue to emerge from the assassination attempt against Donald Trump at his Pennsylvania rally on Saturday (July 13). A new clip going viral online shows how the shooter, 20-year-old Thomas Matthew Crooks, crawled onto the roof of a building just outside of the rally’s perimeter, with attendees seemingly attempting to notify law enforcement of their suspicions. It’s a very harrowing and dark moment to witness, so viewer discretion is advised for the clip below. This adds onto the rampant search for more information on this attack, which left a rally-goer dead and two more injured.
As for Crooks, Trump’s attempted assassin was shot and killed within a minute of him firing his AR-15 from about 130 yards away.

However, other supposed testimonies painted him as a bullied outcast who had odd interactions with his fellow schoolmates, coaches, and teachers.

There’s a f***ing whole investigation by the FBI outside in Butler. Drive over there and go see if they’re investigating staged s**t.”
Elsewhere in the hip-hop world, a lot of rappers clowned the former president for this or made light of the situation despite their sympathy. On the other hand, many of Trump’s MC supporters stood up to defend him amid others wanting to take this chance to criticize him. One of these defenders is Kodak Black, who recently clapped back at Plies’ takedown of No. 45. We’ll see how this debacle continues to spiral…
