Police Ransack Home Of 20-Year Old Suspected Shooter, Who Donated To Liberal Org On Biden’s Inauguration Day

 Law enforcement late Saturday night were ransacking the Bethel Park, Pennsylvania home of a 20-year old male named Thomas Matthew Crooks in connection to the shooting Donald Trump, neighbors told The Daily Wire.

Multiple neighbors said on condition of anonymity that police had knocked on their doors to ask questions and in some cases advised the neighbors to leave their homes.

The police activity corroborates the reporting of the New York Post, which identified Crooks as the suspected shooter. The FBI later confirmed Crooks’ identity early Sunday, after declining to do so during a press conference. The bureau also described it as an assassination attempt.

Federal Election Commission records show that on January 20, 2021—Biden’s inauguration day—the 20-year old Crooks donated $15 through ActBlue, the progressive donation clearinghouse, to the Progressive Turnout Project, which says it “is dedicated to mobilizing the Democratic party and defending democracy.” In donor records, he listed his occupation as unemployed, and listed the address descended upon by police.

Public records reviewed by The Daily Wire suggest that both of his parents are licensed counselors, and that the father owns a firm providing disability services.  Records suggest that his mother is a registered Democrat and his father is a registered Libertarian. The family purchased their home in 1998.

The family could not be reached for comment. The shooter was killed by Secret Service after shooting Trump in the ear.

The 20-year old lived with his parents there, and the family keeps to themselves, the neighbors said. They said the mother is handicapped and is often seen clinging to her husband to walk. They said she was sitting in the street Saturday night on a lawn chair brought out by police.

The Secret Service did not show up to the press conference, where an FBI official acknowledged it was “surprising” that the shooter managed to plant himself on a rooftop and get off several shots before being stopped by the agency. FBI Special Agent in Charge Kevin Rojek said the Secret Service “needs to answer that question.”
