Journalist Ken Klippenstein reported new details about Cole Allen, the California resident accused of attempting to assassinate President Donald Trump at the White House Correspondents' Dinner.
In his Substack, Klippenstein described Allen's, 31, background as "unsettling in its ordinariness."
In his reporting, Klippenstein obtained Allen's resume and interviewed former colleagues, revealing Allen earned a mechanical engineering degree from California Institute of Technology, or Caltech, in 2017 and worked at IJK Controls LLC, a defense technology company based in California. Allen also developed video games and interned at a medical device company.
Contrary to Trump's claims that Allen "hates Christians," former Caltech classmates described Allen as a prominent member of the Caltech Christian Fellowship. He appeared to be a devout Christian.
Social media accounts attributed to Allen posted multiple Christianity references and responded to Trump's Christ-like image by suggesting Trump is the antichrist.
Klippenstein noted the rumors circulating about Allen being an anti-Christian zealot aided by left-wing networks lack substantiation based on available evidence.
FBI officials are investigating whether Allen acted alone.
