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

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 person who answered a phone number connected to Copenhaver's family directed Fox News Digital to a Pittsburgh law firm for confirmation and further comment. 

The House Republican Conference also posted an obituary for Copenhaver on social media, saying he had died Thursday.

Ken Silva, a journalist who wrote a book about the assassination attempt, wrote on his website that a person close to Copenhaver's family also confirmed Copenhaver had died and had been dealing with permanent injuries, including bullet fragments still lodged in his body.

A lawsuit Copenhaver filed against the United States earlier this year alleged he was also required to undergo multiple surgeries.
