A buckshot pellet recovered from a Secret Service agent's ballistic vest has become central evidence in the federal case against Cole Tomas Allen, the 31-year-old California man charged with attempting to assassinate President Trump at the White House Correspondents' Dinner on April 25, 2026. U.S. Attorney Jeanine Pirro announced the forensic link on May 3, settling a week-long debate over whether the agent was struck by the suspect's shotgun or by friendly fire, though defense attorneys and forensic experts have raised questions about the reliability of shotgun ballistics matching.
