All flags at New York state buildings are being flown at half-staff in honor of the Pennsylvania man who was killed at the rally of former President Donald Trump on Saturday.
“Corey Comperatore was a father, a public servant, and a proud American whose life was taken in a senseless act of violence that shakes at the core of our democracy,” Gov. Kathy Hochul said in a statement.“As we honor his memory, let us commit once more to the better angels of our nature, and to the collective freedoms we enjoy as a nation.”
Comperatore was killed during an assassination attempt against Trump in Butler. He is survived by his wife Helen and two daughters.
