United States former president Donald Trump's sensational assassination attempt, which left the entire nation shocked, has another hidden leaf in the sequence of the events which unfolded and ultimately led to the near-fatal incident.&nbsp;

According to Fox News, the 20-year-old shooter Thomas Matthew Crooks had warned about taking such drastic actions in a chilling online post.

If the post is now read after the assassination attempt, one can see how he is hinting at the sinister plans for the day when he tried to kill the former president.&nbsp;

“July 13 will be my premiere, watch as it unfolds,” wrote the gunman on Steam, which is an online platform on which gamers communicate, as reported by Fox News.

The US senators were informed about the shooter's foreshadowing message during a media briefing with top law enforcement officials on Wednesday (July 17).

<h2>Gunman had images of Trump and Biden on his mobile</h2>

The 20-year-old Crooks had saved the images of President Joe Biden and Republican presidential nominee Trump on his mobile phone and had also looked for the dates of Trump’s Pennsylvania rally and Democratic National Convention on the search engines.&nbsp;

He had aimed at the 45th president while hiding at a nearby rooftop, said law enforcement sources.

The investigators have been checking the phones and computers of the shooter and trying to understand the motive behind the assassination attempt. &nbsp;

Their investigation into the search history of the gunman did not reveal what was the political inclination of Crooks.

The man alleged to have wounded 10 people in a knife attack on a Tokyo commuter train late on Friday told police he became incensed when he saw women who "looked happy" and wanted to kill them, Japanese media reported on Saturday. 
 
Police arrested the 36-year-old man in another part of Tokyo after he slashed and stabbed people in the attack at about 8:40 pm (1140 GMT) on Friday on a train on the Odakyu Line in the western part of the city, media reported. 
 
One victim, a female university student, was seriously wounded, while the rest suffered less severe injuries. 
 
The Sankei newspaper reported that suspect told police: "I began feeling like I wanted to kill women who looked happy about six years ago. Anyone was fine, I just wanted to kill a lot of people." 
 
Other media, including broadcaster NHK, reported similar quotes from suspect. 
 
A police spokesman said they had nothing further to share on the details of case when asked about the media reports on Saturday. 
 
Violent crime is rare in Japan but there have been a spate of knife attacks by assailants unknown to the victims. 
 
In June 2008, a man in a light truck drove into a crowd in the popular Akihabara district and then jumped out of the vehicle and started stabbing pedestrians, leaving seven dead.

Florida Naval Base Shooting: 3 killed and 8 injured by Saudi Gunman

A staffer at Paris police headquarters who <a href="https://www.wionews.com/world/four-officers-killed-in-paris-police-headquarters-attack-report-253539">stabbed four colleagues to death</a> seems to have adhered to "a radical vision of Islam", anti-terror prosecutor Jean-Francois Ricard said Saturday.

The assailant, a 45-year-old computer expert, had been in contact with members of the "Salafist Islamist movement", Ricard told reporters.

The attacker "agreed with certain atrocities committed in the name of that religion" and defended the Charlie Hebdo attacks in 2015, Ricard said.

He had also changed his attire in recent months and wished to no longer "have certain kinds of contact with women".

Three police officers and an administrative worker -&nbsp;three men and a woman - <a href="https://www.wionews.com/world/hunt-for-motive-of-staffer-who-killed-four-at-paris-police-headquarters-253715">died in the frenzied 30-minute attack</a> on Thursday at the police headquarters, a stone's throw from the Notre-Dame cathedral in the historic heart of Paris.

The assailant was eventually shot dead by police.

Two other people were injured in the Thursday lunchtime stabbing spree that sent shock waves through an embattled French police force already complaining of low morale.

Sources at the Paris prosecutor's office said on Friday the case had been passed to the anti-terrorist prosecutor's office PNAT after early enquiries suggested that the attacker, a convert to Islam,&nbsp;could have become radicalised.

The assailant, named as Mickael Harpon, was born on the French overseas territory of Martinique in the Caribbean.

Sources said he had worked in a section of the police service dedicated to collecting information on jihadist radicalisation.

Paris police attacker who stabbed four colleagues to death had 'radical vision of Islam': Anti-terror prosecutor

Three men were Friday charged with supplying the weapon used by the gunman in the Christmas market attack in the French city of Strasbourg and placed in pre-trial detention, a judicial source said.

The three suspects, from the same family and aged 32, 34 and 78, were indicted by an examining magistrate in Paris for "possession and transfer of a category B weapon in relation to a criminal terrorist enterprise" and for "conspiracy with terrorist criminals", according to the source.

They are alleged to have supplied an 8mm pistol used by Cherif Chekatt, a small-time criminal who shot dead five people and wounded 11 during the December 11 attack on the open-air Christmas market.

The three men were arrested Tuesday in eastern France along with two other members of the family, who were released from custody Wednesday evening without being charged.

The three suspects were transferred Thursday from Strasbourg to the counter-terrorism bureau in Levallois-Perret, near Paris.

On December 17, another man, a relative of the killer, was also arrested and charged on the same counts.&nbsp;

Anti-terrorist police believe Chekatt had obtained the firearm — an 8mm pistol — a few days before the attack.

Chekatt, 29, who was on a special watchlist as a suspected radical Islamist, was shot dead by police after a two-day manhunt in the city on the German border.

Judicial sources said Chekatt had pledged allegiance to the Islamic State group in a video found on a USB key. The interior minister has dismissed a claim by the Islamic State group that it was responsible for the attack.

France has been on high alert since the start of a wave of jihadist attacks in 2015 which have killed 251 people.
