Lost in History

President McKinley's Assassin


Listen Later

In September 1901, a socially awkward and frustrated anarchist named Leon Czolgosz tracked President William McKinley to the Pan-American Exposition in Buffalo, New York. There, he fired two .32 calibre slugs point blank into the President. As police wrestled the assassin to the ground, Czolgosz had but one thing to say: "I done my duty."
