The county DA says the gunman was on the roof of a nearby building, so it’s unlikely that the audience members were in the shooter’s line of fire. More likely the SS (or someone else with a gun) mistook an audience member for the shooter.
That was one of my theories, too, but I didn’t want to be the first to say it. It’d be a heavy load to carry, knowing you shot an innocent person like that.
I mean, if you’re so far gone that you’re attempting to assassinate a political figure, you’re probably okay with a little collateral damage. Especially if that collateral is a supporter of said politician.
if the shooters on a rooftop, and firing down on trump, it’s absolutely possible it could catch someone on it’s way down, either through ricochet or something.
Though like you said, this can also be due to SS reaction as well.
Do we know yet whether the would-be assassin or Secret Service hit the bystander? I was driving when it happened and am still getting up to speed

I was talking about if it had been a member of the Secret Service that misidentified the guy as the shooter
Or the shooter fired multiple shots and some went into the crowd.

Same. And same with Biden. When asked, he said “I have an opinion but we’ll wait for the facts to come out.”
You’re still getting up to speed? You might want to buy a new car, mate.
