CNN’s Miller: Counter-Sniper Report Says that Trump Shooter Was ‘Looking at Us, Looking at Him’

‘At this point, there‘s not a gun in the picture’

EXCERPT:

MILLER: “We also understand that when he got to the fairgrounds, where this rally was being held for Donald Trump, the first thing that puts him on the radar of security people is, near the magnetometer area, where they're screening people in, he's carrying in his hand a range finder. It's a device that looks like a small pair of binoculars, but it's used by shooters to measure the distance when they're setting up a long distance shot. Because he didn't have a weapon, that would not have prevented him to go through security, but they did flag, 'What does he have this in his hand for?' At that point, they told people, 'Keep an eye on this guy, but then he leaves the secure area, the staging area,' and he doesn't turn up again for some time until the crowd says there's a guy crawling up the roof and it appears he has a rifle. There is an eerie moment in here, Erin, where he's taking the range finder and he's looking through it at the counter-sniper positions and one of the counter-sniper positions is looking at him through the scope. At this point, there's not a gun in the picture, as I understand it, but they're saying, 'He's looking at us looking at him.' Then when people alert the police and they try to come up the ladder to get him, and he confronts them with the AR-15 gun, they dive for cover, and then a moment later, he opens fire.”
