Nick Fuentes Claims Assassination Attempt at His Home Ends with Gunman Killed by Police

The far-right commentator alleges a gunman targeting him was connected to a triple homicide in Illinois before being fatally shot by law enforcement near Fuentes' residence.

Nick Fuentes, a far-right figure known for his controversial views, reported surviving an alleged assassination attempt at his Berwyn, Illinois home on Wednesday night.
The alleged assailant, identified as John R. Lyons, was reportedly involved in a triple homicide earlier that evening in Mahomet, Illinois, before arriving at Fuentes' residence armed with a pistol, crossbow, and incendiary devices.
Surveillance footage shared by Fuentes shows the armed individual approaching his door while he was livestreaming, attempting to enter, and calling out his name.
Police fatally shot the gunman after a standoff during which the assailant killed two dogs while evading capture in a neighboring home and fired at officers.
Fuentes, whose address was recently leaked online after a controversial social media post, announced plans to relocate and appealed to supporters for cryptocurrency donations to fund private security and rebuild his studio.
