TRUMP RALLY GUNMAN Seen Opening Fire ... AND GETTING KILLED SECONDS LATER
TMZ ^ | 7/34/24 | staff

Posted on 07/14/2024 8:57:18 AM PDT by CFW

The Trump rally gunman was laid out on his belly, took aim and fired shots into the crowd before he got met with incoming bullets that killed him ... and TMZ has it all on video.

We've obtained an incredible clip that shows the moment the gunman opened fire at the Butler, PA rally Saturday -- and you can see the guy looking through either a scope or iron sights on a roof ... with people watching down below and freaking out, their panic palpable.

The guy has longer brown hair, and he seems to be wearing a grey shirt/khaki pants -- and as you can see, he's carefully trying pinpoint a target from afar before pulling the trigger.

The cameraman, Michael Difrischia, panned back to the gunman after the retaliating rounds could be heard ... and sure enough, you see the gunman laying there limp and lifeless. You can hear someone off-camera say, "That's exactly why we need f***ing Trump here."

Pics at site. This article is from two hours after the shooting and before a lot of information had come out. But, it shows a picture of the perp laying on the roof and taking aim.

“...and TMZ has it all on video.”

“and you can see the guy looking through either a scope or iron sights on a roof...”

There are photos and video of police snipers looking at the guy for at least 44 seconds before he assassin wannabe pulls the trigger. Then it takes them another 16 seconds to fire one fatal shot at him after he starts shooting.

Yep and people had been telling the police for a while that they saw him crawl up the back of building. Could have been taken out before he got a shot.

Shooter taken out within seconds, headshot no questioning. The only way that happens is if they knew he was there. They waited until he got the shots off, this was a hit.

Any video experts here who can compare height/build of this Thomas Crooks guy with the J6 PIPE BOMBER video?

He's probably a deep state useful idiot and this isn't his first rodeo!

Likely because they were POLICE - SWAT types tied to all kinds of engagement restrictions. It wasn’t JUST the SS that effed up here.

This video backs up every thing the orange hair guy said yesterday. These people below were screaming for him to stop.

Hope these people in possession of these videos are made to hold them for a Congressional investigation.

Good video, haven’t seen this stuff before.

As an aside, as I get older, I am becoming less and less tolerant of the inane shrieking of many women (mainly because it is utterly without value in solving any problem, and it just annoys everyone else*)…and this video only reinforced my view.

* Which reminds me of the old joke about “why is it that women and children always get on the lifeboats first?” So that the man can sit and think of a solution in peace and quiet.

Yeah, I am probably going to get flamed by a few women because of my comments, but as I get older, and especially after the events of yesterday, I simply don’t give a rat’s hindquarters.

The SS snipers waited for the assassin to shoot and only then shot him to eliminate the witness.

Suspicious is what most are thinking.

Most of the shots were the ones that took out the shooter on the roof. I doubt he got off more than a couple rounds.

The founder/owner of TMZ is a gay, Jewish lawyer, so probably a liberal.

Yep... Pretty non-informative.

As an aside:

The man who was k*lled at Trump's Pennsylvania rally has been identified as former fire chief for Buffalo Township, Corey Comperatore.

Rest in peace.

Comperatore's last act on this planet was shielding his daughter from the bullets.

"The PA Trump Rally claimed the life of my brother, Corey Comperatore. The hatred for one man took the life of the one man we loved the most."

"He was a hero that shielded his daughters. His wife and girls just lived through the unthinkable and unimaginable," his sister said on FB.

"My baby brother just turned 50 and had so much life left to experience. Hatred has no limits and love has no bounds. Pray for my sister-in-law, nieces, my mother, sister, me and his nieces and nephews as this feels like a terrible nightmare but we know it is our painful reality."

Here was his last comment on X:

Sad TMZ is a believable source.

My question is, why did the secret service not get President Trump off the stage?
