    A new development…

    Republican presidential nominee Donald Trump has agreed to sit to meet with FBI officials and participate in a victim interview as the investigation into the recent assassination attempt continues.

    “The interview of the former president will be consistent with any other victim interview that we do,” Kevin Rojek, the special agent in charge of the FBI’s Pittsburgh Field Office, told reporters on a conference call Monday. The FBI wants to “get his perspective on what he observed, just like any other witness to the crime.”

    Victim interviews are a routine part of criminal investigations but are voluntary.

    “It is a standard victim interview, like we would do for any other victim of crime under any other circumstances,” Rojek said.

    According to CNN, Rojek admitted that Crooks was “highly intelligent” and had a growing interest in shooting. While officials had already revealed that he searched “how far away was Oswald from Kennedy” before the shooting, Rojek said Monday that he also made other concerning searches related to “power plants, mass shooting events, information on improvised explosive devices and the attempted assassination of the Slovakian Prime Minister earlier this year.”

    His primary social circle “appears to be limited to his immediate family, as we believe, he had few friends and acquaintances throughout his life,” Rojek said.

    “While the FBI investigation may not yet have determined a motive, we believe the subject made significant efforts to conceal his activities,” Rojek said. “Additionally, we believe his actions also show careful planning ahead of the campaign rally.”

    The FBI said Crooks used aliases to purchase both different firearm related items as well as the chemical and explosive components used to make the explosive devices that were found in Crook’s car.

    It is still unclear how Crooks evaded security even after being noticed by law enforcement more than an hour before shots rang out, but the FBI said more than 300 agents and staff are working “round the clock” to gather facts and put together a clearer timeline of Crooks’ actions. 

    FBI officials are still working to determine Crooks’ motive behind the assassination attempt that rocked Butler and neighboring townships. They are also still working to determine whether Crooks planned with any coconspirators, though the agency clarified on Monday that there are no signs to indicate there were others involved.

    Trump is expected to return to Butler at some point for another rally, but he has not released any details on when that will be.
