| [Daily Mail, where America gets its news] An elderly Trump supporter has been seriously hurt in a 'politically motivated' incident after being run over by an ATV while he was putting up a campaign sign in his yard. The 80-year-old Michigan man sustained critical injuries after the vehicle plowed into him in front of his home in Hancock on Sunday. The suspect was identified on Monday after he called police to confess to 'a crime involving an ATV driver in the last 24 hours', according to their statement. However, when cops arrived they discovered the 22-year-old driver dead from a self-inflicted gunshot wound.
Police were first called to the the 1600 block of Anthony Street at 5.45pm on Sunday where they found the elderly man with serious injuries. He was rushed to the hospital where he remains in a critical condition as of Tuesday. Police said that the ATV driver was targeting Trump and law enforcement supporters. The suspect called the cops to report himself and requested they 'send someone to pick me up', according to an official statement. 'The crimes reported in the city of Hancock appear to be politically motivated, involving victims who displayed Trump election signs as well as law enforcement appreciation stickers and flags commonly referred to as "thin blue line" paraphernalia,' Houghton County Sheriff's Office said in a statement. Deputies who searched the driver's home recovered several electronic devices which are being searched by computer forensic specialists.
