According to reports, the video was released by Republican Senator Chuck Grassley, who said that the video was shot by a local police officer's recorder. The picture shows that on the roof, several law enforcement officers and Secret Service agents were standing next to the body of the gunman who was shot dead and talking. The Secret Service agent pointed to the gunman's body and said, "A sniper from Beaver County (law enforcement department) saw (the gunman) and sent a photo. It was him."

The law enforcement officer then asked the Secret Service agent, "I wonder if the photo you got is the same as mine?" The agent replied, "I think so, he (the gunman) is wearing glasses." The agent then asked whether a car parked nearby belonged to the gunman, and the law enforcement officer replied, "We don't know."

Last week, a local law enforcement official with knowledge of the matter told CBS that a sniper deployed at the rally to assist the Secret Service saw the gunman using a rangefinder and took a photo of the gunman minutes before he attempted to assassinate Trump. The conversation in the video seems to confirm this statement.

According to reports from CBS and CNN, Christopher Paris, chief of the Pennsylvania State Police, testified in Congress on the 23rd, revealing more details about the attack on Trump on the 13th. He said the gunman stayed on the roof for about 3 minutes. At that time, two police officers learned of the gunman's location on the roof and tried to climb up to confront the gunman. During the brief standoff, the gunman pointed his gun at the police officer, causing him to fall. A few seconds later, the gunman began shooting at the stage where Trump was speaking. He fired a total of 8 bullets in less than 6 seconds before he was killed by a Secret Service sniper.

Paris also admitted that some security personnel had spotted the gunman in advance that day and reported him to their superiors as a suspicious person.

On the 13th local time, former President Trump held a campaign rally in Butler, Pennsylvania. Crooks, a 20-year-old man, fired several shots at Trump from the roof of a building about 140 meters away from Trump's podium, injuring Trump's right ear and killing one spectator and seriously injuring two others. After the incident, politicians from both parties in the United States and public opinion strongly criticized the US Secret Service for dereliction of duty. Secret Service Director Kimberly Chittel admitted that this was "the most significant security mistake in decades", but she once refused to resign. However, under strong pressure, she finally resigned on the 23rd local time.
