A California man has been charged with trying to kill US President Donald Trump during an attack on a Washington gala dinner over the weekend.Cole Tomas Allen, 31, made his first appearance in federal court on Monday. He is also being charged with gun offenses.
Allen will remain in custody for now. A detention hearing is set for later this week.Allen was wrested to the ground outside of the ballroom at the Washington Hilton where the White House Correspondents’ Association annual dinner was taking place Saturday evening.
Administration officials have said Allen was trying to storm the event to target top US officials, including President Donald Trump, who was attending the event. Trump and Vice President JD Vance were evacuated.
Allen’s exact targets and motives weren’t clear, although he did send a lengthy manifesto to family members that was seen by Bloomberg where he appeared to blast Trump as a “traitor” who committed crimes.
