FBI investigation into Trump assassination attempt continues

Shocking cellphone video shows the chaos at Butler Farm on Saturday after Thomas Matthew Crooks opened fire at a Trump rally in Pennsylvania, wounding the former president, killing a bystander and seriously injuring two others.

The video shows bystanders ducking and signaling to authorities for help after the gunfire stopped.

“We have someone on the ground,” a man is heard shouting, waving his arms. “Hey!”

The camera pans to the stage as Trump, flanked by Secret Service agents, gets back to his feet and raises a fist.

Todd, the Army veteran who recorded the video and wishes to be identified only as Todd the Driller, said he initially offered to bring his son to the rally but was concerned the crowd might be too boisterous.

He said he was relieved when the 9-year-old tried to back out, but then both the boy and his 12-year-old daughter asked for Trump campaign hats, so he ended up going alone.

Todd arrived early and FaceTimed his kids from a line of vendors. They picked out their hats. He bought them. Then he made his way to the stage.

The rally started late, he said, but when Trump arrived, he had a good vantage point near the north fence.

He had taken photos and videos to send to his son, but when the shots were fired, he had his phone in his pocket, listening to Trump’s remarks.

“I had no idea I was in the line of fire between the shooter and President Trump, but when I heard the crack, I knew what it was,” he said. “It was right behind me, and bullets were whizzing past about 20 feet to my left.”

Todd, who is neither a Democrat nor a conservative, said he is voting on two issues. He is pro-life and, as an oil driller, he supports lawmakers who support the industry that supports his family.

Snipers neutralized the threat, but earlier, Crooks, 20, killed 50-year-old father of two Corey Comperatore and seriously wounded 57-year-old David Dutch and 74-year-old James Copenhaver, authorities said.

Todd quickly pulled out his cell phone and filmed the president getting back on his feet, surrounded by secret service agents.

But when he turned to see what was happening behind him, he was shocked. Secret Service and police officers couldn’t get out of the security perimeter without jumping a fence – until a deputy finally drove through and let them out.

“The confused law enforcement officers could not do their job because no one had the foresight to unlock the gate, post a guard there and control access,” he said.

Fortunately, a Secret Service sniper was able to neutralize the shooter before other agents and police officers reached him on the roof.
