Cole Thomas Allen, the individual accused of attempting to assassinate President Donald Trump, took a selfie in his hotel room at the Washington Hilton just half an hour before the shooting.

Journalistic analysis indicates that in the photo, Allen, dressed in a black suit and red tie, was in possession of two types of firearms, ammunition, several knives, as well as a loaded firearm and a flathead screwdriver.

The shooting, which occurred on April 25 during a reception for White House correspondents at the aforementioned hotel, did not injure any members of the U.S. administration; however, a security officer was wounded. Cole Thomas Allen has been charged with three counts.
