Aside from what is known of Scalise: (who is said to have been shot in the “hip” maybe higher (and it was his right hip from the UK daily mail video of him going into the helo. Scalise was on second base, fired at from along the fence by the 3rd base line- if a straight line from 3rd to 2nd is 90 feet then the distance from 3rd to other side of the fence say 25 feet- a little over 110 feet).
Walked toward home plate shooting away, a pitcher was on the mound 60 feet from homeplate, a batter at home and a catcher— 90 feet from 3rd to home. Most of his shots (extrapolating) he was within 100 feet maybe closer. The other known (Officer Bailey was shot in the leg, don’t know about Officer Crystal) hits were in an ankle or lower extremity. Barth was hit in the ankle and Cong. Mo Brooks (who btw is running for Senator of AL replacing Sessions) took off his belt to tourniquet the lower leg (may have save Barth’s life, not bleed out).
The guy was 5’6 and shooting from his shoulder or possibly idiot style from waist. So the shots were generally lower, and trajectoried lower. In the NY Post phone video you can hear a lot of richochet coming off the concrete of the dugout— quite audible. It is fortunate he was 1.) a lousy shot, but it only takes one and 2.)the two Capitol Police security were there and both well trained with pistol.
We’ll know more later. And yeah, an SKS (if chinee particularly) is not particularly accurate, and was never intended as a sniper. The comments at UK Daily Mail (which has phenomenal photos of this guy’s van he’d rigged as a secret camper) kept saying it was an M-1 Garand.
Also, want to say. This guy came in his van two months ago, got a ups box, showered at the YMCA and has a quite queer facebook friend who manages the Duncan branch of the Alexandria Public library, right near the baseball park.
This guy came to Alexandria for “other things” shall we say potentially, and got some intel help, as it was not commonly known they regularly played this field. Point: he had help, this was not lone wolf.
Again, reference the UK Daily Mail article- quite thorough, lots of photos including his DUI on NY’s Eve 1992. Pissed off looking then. There will have to be an official inquiry.
Meanwhile WAPO putting out more crap- that now mueller is investigating trump himself for obstruction of justice— total fantasy to distract.
