Man Injured in 2024 Attempted Assassination of Trump Has Died
James Copenhaver, one of two men injured during the July 13, 2024 attempted assassination of Donald Trump in Pennsylvania, has died at age 76. While Trump confirmed the news on Truth Social and praised Copenhaver as a patriot, it remains unclear if his death was directly caused by the injuries sustained when shooter Thomas Matthew Crooks opened fire. Copenhaver’s family had previously sued the Secret Service for negligence regarding the security failure that allowed the attack.
