Thomas Matthew Crooks’ father was seen in public Monday for the first time since his 20-year-old son opened fire at a rally for Donald Trump in Butler, Pennsylvania – leaving one man dead, and the former president and two others injured.
Fox News Digital caught up with the man a neighbor and employee at a local business identified as Crooks' father. He declined to answer questions when approached."We're going to release a statement when our legal counsel advises us to do so – until then, we have no comment," he told Fox News Digital before beginning to load items into the vehicle. "We just want to try to take care of ourselves right now. Please, just give us our space.
The Crooks' family have cooperated with the FBI investigation as they continue to try to pin down a motive for the assassination attempt. Several questions remain in the wake of the shooting, including how Crooks was able to evade security and climb atop a nearby roof where he fired shots towards rally goers and the former president.
