"Cole Tomas Allen did not speak in court on Monday as his attorney entered the plea on his behalf. The charges against him include attempted assassination of the president, assault on a federal officer and firearms offenses."
Cole Tomas Allen pleaded not guilty to all charges related to an alleged attack at a Washington gala last month. His attorney entered the plea on his behalf without Allen speaking in court. The charges include attempted assassination of the president, assault on a federal officer, and firearms offenses. Prosecutors allege Allen fired a shotgun at a U.S. Secret Service agent. Prosecutors also allege he stormed a security checkpoint during a foiled attack at the annual White House correspondents’ dinner. The dinner occurred while Donald Trump was gathered with more than 2,500 members of the Washington press corps.
