- 枪击事件针对华盛顿知名晚宴
华盛顿,4月27日(路透社)——因试图闯入总统唐纳德·特朗普出席的华盛顿晚宴安保圈而枪击美国特勤局特工的男子,预计将于周一出庭接受刑事指控。
现年31岁的科尔·托马斯·艾伦来自加利福尼亚州托伦斯市,他将在华盛顿联邦法院首次出庭。两天前,当局挫败了一起针对白宫记者协会晚宴的袭击计划。该晚宴是每年一度的记者与政要出席的正装晚宴。

指控尚未正式提交,但华盛顿联邦首席检察官珍妮·皮罗表示,艾伦将面临袭击联邦官员以及在暴力犯罪中使用枪支的指控。代理司法部长托德·布兰奇表示,包括未遂暗杀在内的其他指控也有可能,但调查仍在进行中。
艾伦曾给家人留下一份宣言,自称“友好的联邦刺客”,并提到计划袭击当晚出席酒店宴会厅的特朗普政府高级官员。布兰奇称,他的目标很可能包括特朗普本人。

官员们表示,艾伦在晚宴举办地华盛顿希尔顿酒店预订了房间,并从加州乘火车前往华盛顿。
周六的枪击事件扰乱了这场华盛顿社交日程中的重磅活动,与会者纷纷躲到桌子底下,执法人员迅速将高级官员带离现场。原定当晚稍后发表演讲的特朗普在枪声响起后被安保人员护离舞台。
周一的庭审预计将较为简短。法官将告知艾伦其合法权利,检察官预计将申请在案件审理期间将其羁押。
艾伦尚未对指控作出回应。目前尚不清楚他是否聘请了律师。
当局称,嫌疑人在酒店内的一个检查站向一名特勤局特工开枪,随后被制服逮捕。特朗普在网上发布的视频片段显示,这名嫌疑人在宴会厅外的走廊奔跑。
美国官员表示,嫌疑人在安全区域内被制服,并将此次制服行动誉为执法成功。但这一事件再次引发了人们对特朗普以及其他美国官员安全的担忧。特朗普在2024年总统竞选期间曾躲过两起暗杀企图。
这名特勤局特工中弹,但防弹背心挡住了子弹,该特工在数小时后出院。
当局称,除霰弹枪外,艾伦还携带了一把手枪和多把刀具。枪击事件发生后,他也被送往当地医院接受评估。

- Allen divulged plans to target Trump officials, authorities say
- Shooting targeted prominent Washington gala
WASHINGTON, April 27 (Reuters) – The man accused of shooting a U.S. Secret Service agent as he tried to breach security at a Washington dinner where President Donald Trump was present is expected in court on Monday to face criminal charges.
Cole Tomas Allen, 31, of Torrance, California, is scheduled to make his first appearance in Washington federal court, two days after authorities said they foiled an attack at the White House Correspondents’ Association Dinner, an annual black-tie gathering of journalists and politicians.

Charges have not yet been formally filed, but U.S. Attorney Jeanine Pirro, the top federal prosecutor in Washington, said Allen would be charged with assault on a federal officer and using a firearm during a crime of violence. Acting Attorney General Todd Blanche said other charges, including attempted assassination, were possible, but that the investigation remains ongoing.
Allen left a manifesto with family members referring to himself as the “Friendly Federal Assassin” and discussing plans to target senior Trump administration officials, who were present in the hotel ballroom. Blanche said his targets likely included Trump himself.

Allen booked a room at the Washington Hilton hotel, where the dinner took place, and traveled from California to Washington by train, officials said.
The shooting on Saturday rattled the press dinner, a prominent event on Washington’s social calendar, sending attendees scrambling under tables and prompting law enforcement to whisk senior officials out of the room. Trump, who was set to deliver remarks later in the evening, was rushed off the stage by security personnel after shots were fired.
The proceeding on Monday is expected to be brief. A judge will advise Allen of his legal rights and prosecutors are expected to seek his detention while the case moves forward.
Allen has not yet responded to the allegations. It was not immediately clear if he had a lawyer.
The suspect allegedly fired a shotgun at a Secret Service agent at a checkpoint inside the hotel before being tackled and arrested, according to authorities. Video footage Trump posted online showed the suspect sprinting through a hallway outside the ballroom.
U.S. officials have said the suspect was subdued just inside a security perimeter and have touted his takedown as a law enforcement success. But the incident has revived concerns about the safety of Trump, who survived two assassination attempts during his 2024 presidential campaign, and other U.S. officials.
The Secret Service agent was struck but a tactical vest stopped the shot, and the agent was released from a hospital hours later.
Allen, who authorities said was armed with a handgun and multiple knives, in addition to the shotgun, was also taken to a local hospital to be evaluated following the shooting.
