Neighbors of the man who allegedly shot Donald Trump said that they spotted campaign signs for the former president outside his home in recent years.

WPXI first reported Monday that law enforcement officers had interviewed the neighbors of Thomas Matthew Crooks, who Secret Service snipers killed following the assassination attempt.

"It was around 10 o'clock this morning when we started to see some movement," WPXI reporter Lauren Talotta said during an afternoon broadcast. "That's when we saw investigators dressed in plain clothes as well as FBI agents approach this house."

"That's where the family of Crooks was last seen," she explained. "We spoke with a neighbor who told us that they've been outside the house going door to door, canvassing the neighborhood and speaking with people who live here."

Talotta confirmed earlier reports that said Crooks was a registered Republican.

"Records show he is a registered Republican and neighbors today told us that they've actually seen Trump signs outside of the home over the course of the last few years now," she added.

Talotta's report noted that investigators were searching through Crooks's social media accounts for a motive.

A clip of the report was highlighted on X Monday afternoon.
