In a recent government meeting, officials provided updates on the ongoing investigation into a shooting incident involving a suspect who was reportedly using a drone prior to the event. Key discussions centered around the analysis of physical evidence, including blood and tissue patterns, and their consistency with witness testimonies.
Investigators confirmed that the autopsy, conducted by state authorities, is still incomplete but has not revealed any significant anomalies thus far. They noted that the physical evidence collected from the scene aligns with the accounts provided by witnesses. However, questions remain regarding the shooter’s actions leading up to the incident, particularly whether he brought his weapon to the roof or if it was already there.
A notable detail emerged regarding the firearm used by the shooter, which featured a collapsible stock. This characteristic may have contributed to the weapon being less noticeable prior to the incident, as witnesses reported first seeing the shooter with the gun only once he was on the roof.
Additionally, investigators are examining the use of a drone by the shooter approximately two hours before the incident. The drone was found in the suspect's vehicle, and analysis of its flight path revealed that it was operated for about eleven minutes, providing a vantage point near the location where former President Trump was scheduled to speak. However, no images or videos from the drone were recovered from the day of the rally.
The investigation remains active, with officials continuing to gather and analyze evidence to piece together the events leading up to the shooting.
