 Secret Service quickly rushed him off stage and the former president has since said he is okay. The identity of that shooter in the assassination attempt of the former president is now known. The shooter is Thomas Matthew Crooks of Bethel Park, Pennsylvania. The shooter was up on that roof, we're told, for a very short time before he fired that weapon. Police tell us Crooks was able to get up on that rooftop just about 200 yards away from that stage where the former president was speaking. Then a U.S. Secret Service counter sniper took him out.
