Crooks' parents contacted the police on the day of the rally to report that their son was missing and they were concerned about his whereabouts.
The parents of Thomas Matthew Crooks, the 20-year-old who attempted to assassinate former President Donald Trump at a rally in Butler, Pennsylvania, had alerted law enforcement hours before the shooting.
According to Fox News, Crooks' parents contacted the police on the day of the rally to report that their son was missing and they were concerned about his whereabouts. The specifics of their concerns have not yet been disclosed. However, the parents are fully cooperating with law enforcement in the ongoing investigation of the assassination attempt. The FBI is still working to determine Crooks' motive for his actions.
During the rally, Crooks fired multiple rounds at the former president, grazing Trump's right ear with a bullet. The attack left one attendee dead and two others critically injured before Crooks was shot and killed by the Secret Service.
