Trump Rally Attendee Killed During Shooting Identified

The rallygoer who was killed during Saturday's assassination attempt on former President Donald Trump has been identified. Authorities say it was 50-year-old Corey Comperatore, a former fire chief for Buffalo Township in Butler County. Comperatore's wife says he "died a hero" after diving onto his family to shield them from gunfire. At a press conference Sunday, Pennsylvania Gov. Josh Shapiro said "Last night at this rally, Corey was the very best of us. May his memory be a blessing."  Two other people were critically injured in the attack and are currently hospitalized. How should Comperatore and the other victims be honored?
