Pellet found in Secret Service agent's vest links suspect to WHCD attack, Pirro says

""We now can establish that a pellet that came from the buckshot from the defendant's Mossberg pump-action shotgun was intertwined with the fiber of the vest of the Secret Service officer. It is definitively his bullet.""

""He hit at that Secret Service agent. He had every intention to kill him and anyone who got in his way on his way to killing the president of the United States.""

""We have a lot of evidence that indicates his intent and the fact that everything that he did thereafter, whether it was following what the president was doing, where he was going to the day of the event at the hotel, tracking on his phone, 'Is the president in the ballroom yet? Has the president sat down yet? What time will dinner be served?'""

""I expect in the next week or so, there will be more information coming out. Obviously, assuming the investigation moves forward, there will be an indictment forthcoming.""

Investigators recovered a buckshot pellet from a Secret Service agent's vest, linking suspect Cole Tomas Allen to the shooting incident at the White House Correspondents' Dinner. Allen allegedly fired a shotgun at the agent after breaching a security checkpoint. He faces charges including attempted assassination and illegally transporting firearms. Evidence suggests Allen intended to kill the agent and potentially target President Trump, as indicated by his tracking of the president's movements leading up to the event. Further charges may be forthcoming as the investigation continues.
