Trump rally shooting victim ‘dove on his family’ to save them from bullets

Corey Comperatore, a volunteer firefighter, was killed during the assassination attempt on the ex-US president.

The person who died during the assassination attempt on former US President Donald Trump is 50-year-old firefighter Corey Comperatore, says his family in a Facebook post.

“The PA Trump Rally claimed the life of my brother, Corey Comperatore. The hatred for one man took the life of the one man we loved the most,” his sister Dawn Comperatore Schafer said in the post on Sunday.

Comperatore previously served as the chief of the Buffalo Township Volunteer Fire Company, a report by the Pittsburgh Post-Gazette said.
