    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.
