There were three snipers stationed inside the building the shooter used during Saturday's shooting of former President Donald Trump, a local law enforcement officer with direct knowledge of the incident tells CBS News.
One of the snipers inside saw Thomas Matthew Crooks outside and looking up at the roof, observing the building and disappearing, a local law enforcement officer tells CBS News.
Crooks came back, sat down and looked at his phone. At that point, one of the snipers took a picture of him. Crooks took out a rangefinder and the sniper radioed to the command post. Crooks disappeared again and then came back a third time with a backpack. The snipers called in with information that he had a backpack and said he was walking towards the back of the building.

No one saw the shooter climb up a ladder and onto the roof with a gentle slope?
That part is still a mystery to me

Apparently law enforcement saw him and radioed it in. They were trying to get on the roof when he was killed.
  • Aerial surveillance would have prevented this
  • Placing a local officer or SS sniper on the roof would have prevented this.
No excuse for these failures. Zero.
