WASHINGTON (Sputnik) - FBI Director Christopher Wray said on Wednesday that shooter Thomas Crooks fired at least eight shots at former President Donald Trump's rally in Pennsylvania, as eight cartridges were found at the scene.
"We know that he [Trump shooter Thomas Crooks] fired at least eight because we recovered eight cartridges on the roof," Wray said during a US House Judiciary Committee hearing.
Wray added that the collapsible stock of the weapon used in the shooting at a Trump rally may have made it less visible to the crowd.
