BlackRock says it has yanked its 2022 ad that featured Thomas Matthew Crooks, the man authorities say attempted to assassinate former President Trump.
BlackRock pulled its advertisement from a few years ago that showed Thomas Matthew Crooks, the suspect authorities believe attempted to assassinate former President Trump over the weekend. Images of Crooks' appearance in the ad began circulating online after he was identified by officials as the gunman that fired several shots at a Trump campaign rally on Saturday, striking the upper part of Trump’s right ear while the former president was speaking to rallygoers.
Crooks, 20, was from Bethel Park, a Pittsburgh suburb about an hour south from where the assassination attempt took place. BlackRock said its 2022 ad featured a teacher from Bethel Park High School, where Crooks graduated from the same year. Crooks was one of several students that "briefly appeared in the background." TRUMP MEDIA SHARES SURGE 50% AFTER ASSASSINATION ATTEMPT "The assassination attempt on former President Trump is abhorrent," BlackRock said in a statement.
