Gunman Found with Explosives in Attempted Trump Assassination
Reports from US security sources disclosed to Fox News reveal that Thomas Mathew Crooks, the gunman who attempted to assassinate former President Donald Trump, was found with explosive materials both in his car and at his residence.
The incident unfolded during a Trump rally in Butler, Pennsylvania, where Crooks’ vehicle, parked nearby, contained bomb-making components, including an improvised explosive device (IED).
While specific details on the number and type of explosives were not fully disclosed, it was confirmed that multiple hazardous materials were discovered.
Law enforcement further discovered additional bomb-making materials at Crooks’ residence.
The 20-year-old assailant reportedly used an AR-style weapon during the attempted assassination, firing multiple shots, though none successfully hit Trump, only grazing his ears.
Swift response from the Secret Service led to Crooks’ immediate neutralization.
The incident has raised significant concerns regarding security measures at public events and the ongoing safety protocols surrounding high-profile political figures.
It was reported that former Nigerian president Goodluck Jonathan has allegedly purchased a presidential candidate form for the 2027 elections.
It can be noted that Jonathan served as Nigeria’s president from 2010 to 2015.
This information was revealed by Sani Useni, a special assistant who made the claim. Many reacted to the news, with some expressing interest in seeing Jonathan return to power after staying relatively quiet politically since his administration ended.
However, Jonathan has not yet addressed the public or officially shared any presidential ambition.
The Christian Association of Nigeria (CAN) has reacted to the recent abduction incident in Oyo State.
It can be recalled that schools were attacked by armed men, with some teachers and students reportedly taken. Some people were also killed during the attack.
CAN cried out on behalf of the public, stating “It is intolerable, disgraceful and utterly unacceptable that Nigerian children can no longer sit safely in classrooms without the fear of being kidnapped by armed gangs.”
The organisation also stated that Nigerians are tired of constantly mourning and questioning when something will finally be done to stop the violence.
The Governor of Oyo State, Seyi Makinde, has revealed that seven teachers were abducted following a recent attack on a school in the state.
It was also shared that the number of students taken is still being investigated.
The governor further revealed that some people were killed during the attack and abduction.
He also added “With the pressure on the terrorists and the bandits in the North-West, they will keep moving southward.”
“When you have pressure in one place, we must be prepared on this side to either repel or neutralise any terrorists fleeing the pressure points.”
