James Copenhaver, man shot at Trump Butler rally, dies of complications from injuries

[FOX]
James Copenhaver, of Coraopolis, Pennsylvania, who was wounded in a failed assassination attempt on President Donald Trump in 2024, has died, according to several reports.

Copenhaver, in his mid-70s, was one of several people who attempted assassin Thomas Matthew Crooks shot at the Butler Farm Show complex outside Butler, Pennsylvania, after Crooks scaled the roof of a nearby glass manufacturing building and took aim at the then-presidential candidate.

A statement from the Copenhaver family provided to Fox News Digital confirmed his death Thursday afternoon, and noted the veteran's "dedication to this great country."

"It is with profound sadness that the Copenhaver family confirms that James Copenhaver passed away on September 23, 2026, surrounded by his loved ones," the statement said.

"Above all else, James was a devoted husband, father, and grandfather. James shared a lifetime of commitment to his wife, instilled the values of hard work, integrity, and the service of others in his children, and found some of his greatest joy in life in his grandchildren. His family was the center of his world, and he was the center of theirs. # id) ?>

Sad to see any innocent attendee shot and/or die.

At least that POS Crooks preceded him.
BTW: I still have serious doubts that Crooks acted alone and did not have sponsors. Given all the claimed $$$$$ various sources found stash in accounts.
