Timeline of Trump rally shooting shows witnesses alerted officers 2 minutes before gunfire | 15 July 2024 | [Timeline] ...6:09 p.m.: People alert officers to the gunman --People alerted law enforcement to the gunman on the roof of a building about 410 feet away from the stage, at least two minutes before the first shot was fired at Trump, video analyzed by CBS News shows. The video provides insight into the chaotic minutes leading up to the attempted assassination of the former president and raises questions about the preparedness of law enforcement regarding the building. "Look, they're all pointing. Someone's on top of the roof," a person says as at least one law enforcement officer walks around the building. "There he is, right there. Right there, see him? He's laying down." Another person appears to gesture to the officer, "He's on the roof … right here, right on the roof."
