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

True. It’s not hard to believe the cop went up the ladder just to see if Crooks was doing all right. After all - they knew he was there.
Heh. I don’t believe he was hanging from his hands and pulling himself up to look.
Yeah, he was 40 ft away from their open window on the 2nd floor of the building overlooking the roof the shooter was on, as the SS snipers peered out the window to see if there was anything interesting going on...
