HOW could their own snipers have possibly missed the shooter on the roof with a rifle?

The snipers had left their position to go look for the suspicious person reported to be walking around.

That's not a sniper's job. There should be roaming agents for those cases. Call it in, stay in position. Geez, maybe I should apply for a federal job; I hear there's an opening.
