Recently released video footage recorded by one of the victims at the Trump rally in Butler, Pennsylvania, reveals an individual traversing a nearby rooftop approximately three minutes prior to the gunfire.

James Copenhaver, who sustained two gunshot wounds during the assassination attempt on July 13, captured the footage of a person moving across the roof of the American Glass Research (AGR) building at 6:08 p.m., just minutes before the assailant, Thomas Matthew Crooks, discharged his weapon into the crowd at 6:11 p.m., as reported by Fox News on Wednesday. Authorities believe that Crooks, aged 20, fired eight rounds into the assembly from the AGR roof, which is situated 130 feet away, using an AR-15 style rifle.

The shooting resulted in injuries to Trump, specifically to the upper part of his right ear, and claimed the life of 50-year-old Corey Comperatore, a former fire chief, who was protecting his two daughters during the attack. Additionally, the incident left Copenhaver and 57-year-old David Dutch in critical condition.
