A team of snipers, tasked with protecting former President Donald Trump, were perched just below the roof where Thomas Matthew Crooks fired off multiple shots into the crowd.
According to a source familiar with the investigation, CNN reported that a unit made up of local law enforcement snipers had been assigned to the second floor of the warehouse, approximately 410 feet from Trump’s podium. Supervisors had instructed them to monitor the crowd.
