Summary of Would-be Trump assassin's rampage ended when SWAT hit his rifle with a bullet, report says
#nevent1q…whr0
A SWAT operator from the Butler County Emergency Services Unit stopped an attempted assassination of former President Donald J. Trump at a rally in Butler, Pennsylvania, by hitting the attacker's rifle with a bullet from 100 yards away. The operator's shot damaged the rifle's stock, preventing further shots from being fired, and likely saved lives. The FBI has been criticized for releasing the crime scene and body to the family for cremation, which hindered other investigations, and for scrubbing the scene of biological evidence.

Bullet points of Would-be Trump assassin's rampage ended when SWAT hit his rifle with a bullet, report says
- A SWAT operator from the Butler County Emergency Services Unit ended the attempted assassination of former President Donald J. Trump by hitting Thomas Matthew Crooks' rifle with a bullet from ground level 100 yards away.
- Crooks was 'fragged' in the face when the SWAT operator's bullet hit his rifle's stock, breaking it apart and damaging his face, neck, and shoulder area.
- The SWAT operator's shot was fired about 10 seconds before a police counter-sniper shot and killed Crooks, and it is possible that the bullet from the SWAT operator disabled Crooks' weapon and prevented him from firing a ninth or subsequent time.
- The FBI released the crime scene after just three days, harming the efforts of other investigations examining the shooting, and also scrubbed the scene before releasing it, which is unheard of in law enforcement.
- The FBI's actions have been described as 'obstruction' of congressional and other investigations, and the agency's motives for releasing the crime scene and body so quickly are unclear.
- The report confirmed that Crooks took a path along the roof to his shooting perch that minimized his exposure to the counter-sniper teams, and that he likely used his drone to confirm the route he would take.
- The report also discounted widely circulated internet theories that a second gunman was located atop the blue water tower at the edge of the AGR property, and concluded that there was no second shooter.
- The report praised the tactical teams and other local police officers who staffed the event and responded to the shooting, saying that the ESU was 'very professionally deployed and commanded'.
