FAR-RIGHT firebrand Nick Fuentes says he was targeted by an armed killer after a triple murder suspect was shot dead in Illinois.
Fuentes said the suspected murderer showed up at his house – but cops have yet to reveal if he was targeted by the wanted killer.

Cops responded to calls about a gunman in Berwyn, a suburb of Chicago, just before midnight on Wednesday night.
The man escaped on foot before breaking into a home and shooting two dogs to death, police said, according to The CW affiliate WGN-TV.
After he opened fire on police, cops shot the suspect to death.
Officials believe the suspect, who hasn’t been named, killed three people earlier that day in Mahomet, which is about 140 miles south of Berwyn.
Fuentes, a streamer known for sharing white supremacist and antisemitic ideology, said he was targeted by the armed suspect, but police haven’t confirmed his claim.
“Last night an armed killer made an attempt on my life at my home, which was recently doxed on this platform,” Fuentes wrote on X.
It’s unclear whether the murder suspect knew of Fuentes or that he lived in the home.
Fuentes reported the gunman carried a “pistol, crossbow, and incendiary devices.”
“I believe he intended to kill me,” he wrote.
Police didn’t immediately respond to The U.S. Sun’s request for comment.
Fuentes’ home address was doxxed last month after he posted a video mocking women’s reproductive rights following Donald Trump’s win in the presidential election.
Using the doxxed address, social media activist Marla Rose went to his house to confront him about the post on November 10.
She recorded herself attempting to ring Fuentes’ doorbell before Fuentes opened the door and allegedly pepper-sprayed her before pushing her down the stairs.
Fuentes was arrested for the altercation on November 27 and charged with battery.
