Foreign. The popular American right-wing profile Nick Fuentes was subjected to an assassination attempt in his home during the night. An armed perpetrator, who had murdered three other people earlier in the day, made his way to his home after left-wing activists revealed and spread his address on social media.
“He's dead now, I'm OK,” Fuentes announces.

Nick Fuentes, who is known for his sharp criticism of Israeli influence on US politics, describes the incident himself on X:
“Last night, an armed killer tried to take my life at my home after my address was shared on this platform,” he writes.
According to Fuentes, the perpetrator was armed with a gun, a crossbow and what appear to have been firebombs. He was shot dead by police before he could carry out his plan.
In surveillance footage published by the right-wing profile, the man is seen knocking on the door while calling out for “Nick.”
The killer parked his car in front of my house and approached my door with his pistol drawn and what appears to be a crossbow. I was livestreaming at the time.

Killed neighbors' dogs
Police say the killer committed a triple murder in southern Illinois before he went to Fuentes' home.
In an attempt to escape the police, he also allegedly broke into a neighbor of Fuentes's, where he killed two dogs.
Nick Fuentes expresses his gratitude for having survived the incident.
“I thank God that I am alive today,” he writes, but adds that he is now forced to move to protect his neighbors and their families.
“Hangouts are not a game. This nihilistic lynch mob behavior must end before more people die,” the right-wing profile continues.
As a result of the attack, Fuentes announces that he will now hire security personnel around the clock, at a cost of approximately $13,000 per week. He has asked his followers for financial support via crypto donations as he is banned from the entire traditional banking system due to his comments about Jewish power structures.
Nick Fuentes recently received another unwelcome visit since his address was leaked – from a screaming radical feminist 57-year-old woman who he pepper-sprayed in the face. He is being investigated by police for assault over the incident.
