James Copenhaver, a 76-year-old attendee at Donald Trump's campaign rally in Butler, Pennsylvania, has died from complications related to wounds sustained during the 2024 shooting incident.2 Copenhaver was shot twice—in the arm and abdomen—during the attack at the rally.2 He remained severely injured in the years following the event, with a bullet still lodged near his spine a year after the shooting, requiring him to use a crutch to walk.2
Another rally attendee, Corey Comperatore, was killed in the attack, and Trump was grazed in the ear by a bullet.2 The gunman, identified as Thomas Crooks, 20, was fatally shot by Secret Service agents.2 Trump responded to Copenhaver's death, calling it a "tremendous loss."3
Copenhaver, a Vietnam War veteran, had pursued legal action against the federal government alongside another shooting survivor beginning in June 2024, alleging that the Secret Service failed to ensure their safety at the rally.2 His family's attorney characterized his service to the nation as a defining aspect of his life.2
