TORRANCE, California — The FBI raided the home of suspected White House Correspondents’ Dinner gunman Cole Allen late Saturday after swarming the property in the quiet Los Angeles suburbs.
Allen, a 31-year-old CalTech mechanical engineering grad, was subdued after he rushed a security checkpoint and opened fire with a shotgun inside the Washington Hilton during the annual White House Correspondents’ Dinner on Saturday evening, according to law enforcement sources.
An FBI convoy, including armored trucks and agents clad in camouflage tactical gear, descended onto Allen’s home in Torrance, Calif. late Saturday night — hours after The Post arrived on the scene.
ABC 7 observed that occupants briefly interacted with federal agents on the home’s porch. One truck pointed a spotlight towards the home and eventually seemed to focus on the second-floor window, which overlooks the driveway.
Agents made first entry into the home just before midnight, the outlet reported.
The highly anticipated White House Correspondents’ Dinner, the first Trump has attended as president, came to a screeching halt when a gunman cut past security and opened fire mere steps away from the packed ballroom.
The president and first lady Melania Trump were rushed out of the room by security — followed by Vice President JD Vance and a slew of other top officials.
Trump later shared pictures of Allen, shirtless and subdued while officers pinned him to the floor, on TruthSocial.
While Allen wasn’t formally identified as the suspect during Saturday’s press conference, Trump did repeatedly note that the “sick” gunman hailed from California.
Sources told ABC 7 that Allen apparently trekked from Los Angeles, just outside of his hometown, to Chicago before heading to Washington, DC.
Neighbor Jeff Smith said he met Allen one time.
“The one interaction I had was like, maybe he could be on the spectrum,” he said.
