He swept the muzzle of the rifle at a police office peering onto the roof, just seconds before the first shots rang out. Was this enough time for someone like him to reposition in the other direction and shoot accurate shots on target?

I've been asking this question for days now. Did Crooks have a second rifle that he backed down the cop climbing the roof?

Or did he get back into position, find his target, regsight his scope, and fire dead center?

I have only one good eye, yet I say that with a few minutes of prep work that I could hit a target 130 yards away. Most people could.

But some kid could do the same with a few seconds?

Good point but it also could be that the cop was lying about having a gun pointed at him.

They're now saying there was a local sniper inside that room of the two-story building, but that's very new information. Is it accurate? Earlier we were told that the building wasn't occupied.

If this was a setup then a professional sniper would have been inside. Also what were those reports early on of looking for a man of Chinese descent?

If the cops were on the front side of the building he would have been positioned in their direction any. I don’t know where the cop was lifted up at...the front, side or back, do you?
